As someone who dissed GraphQL for a long time, Hasura/Apollo are in a really good place now, the amount of code you don't have to write and the performance/features you get for free are really compelling. The setup isn't conceptually simple, but it sure does keep your codebase lean.

Yes, but that isn't the thrust of the article.

"Simple architectures" and "boring technology" are slogans meant to keep technologies like GraphQL out of your stack. Writing less code and getting features for free is how one describes "exciting technology".
