Being hard to define and manage subscriptions is a problem, a bigger deeper problem that react query or any other lib isn't solving.
By "set of possible events any given query might need to subscribe to is massive" i assume you meant "component" and not query, if not then i don't know what that means, if yes, that component needs refactoring.
I'm interested in libraries not because of what it can do for my code or me or my team but what problem it solved for the team that needed it in the first place, bad enough to write a lib for it. I want to avoid those problems.
I start with importing libs for quick TAT and slowly replace them with a few hundred lines of code that i can understand, modify, debug, monitor, unit and integration test. I usually end up redefining or better defining the problem and rescoping the issue to not needing to solve said problems.
Most libs do NOT provide that level of valuable solutions to worthy problems to go keep them around as deps. Deps are not free and have no liability to me or my code. React query is one more in that long list. IMHO.
I do mean “query”. I am presuming you want every query in your app to live update when the results change. The problem I’m indicate is: how do you know which queries are invalid after any given event?
