Redux is not a framework or a technology. It's an architecture pattern and a damn good one at that. So much so, that facebook includes the useReducer hook in React's top level APIs.
I agree that there is a tendency in the community to use redux before it becomes necessary and to do so without understanding the benefits it provides. However, to suggest SWR and and React Query as an alternative to redux is harmful and MISLEADING. You could pair them with redux to form a pretty effective stack.
I have shipped complex production apps with and without using redux. It usually depends on the use case, app's requirements and complexity in the application's state management. I've found that in applications where redux is not a good fit, apollo client is. This is because apollo client utilizes a normalized state in to form of apollo cache. Apollo client sort of abstracts out the custom plumbing you would otherwise have to write if you were using redux and if the out of the box features in apollo client are enough for you, it may just be enough. Some of those apps still benefit from redux like patterns though, like using the useReducer hook in complex components.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
