I'm 100% with you on Relay being overcomplicated. My first project with it involved a lot of set up and the other frontend developer completely gave up on learning Relay entirely. In contrast, for a newer project I used Apollo and was up and running in no time at all. It's very easy to reason about, but also gives you great React integrations.
