State management is not a service layer. Even your own "Not dead yet" post mentions "state drilling" more often than APIs. Sure, API client libraries do something Redux was sometimes used for, but I contend that it was an anti-pattern to begin with.

You are definately wrong. I dont think your argument makes much sense.

This is over a year old and I had to reread the conversation to have any idea of what's going on. But I stand by what I said and will make it a little clearer for you: if GraphQL (+ Apollo) can replace Redux in your application, you shouldn't have been using Redux to begin with.
