It's not necessarily that it's not a GraphQL API, it's that they seemed to have explored it for a long time at least to my knowledge, but then release an adaptation of REST to the public

Don't know if they use it internally

Sure, that could be.

I was curious about your preference over having an external GraphQL API over a REST one moreso than their internal architecture.

After all, unless they tell us, we won't know if internally they use GraphQL or RPC or whatever to have microservices communicate
