Well, I tested it by creating a little sample android app that fetched a collection of images for display in a grid.

For some reason I found this very simple scenario quite a hassle using a native GraphQL client for Android. And the alternative, ditching the client and making simple http requests was rather clunky when poking around what's returned.

Admittedly I only spent an hour or so on it but...REST just seems drastically simpler to get up and running with.
