I’m a Gatsby fan and have built several sites with it. But I do recognize it’s a dead end at its core. Its main use case is data driven static sites, and it does that case very well. But when it tries to extend beyond that, the results are mixed.

But with that said, I give Gatsby a lot of credit in pushing forward the idea of a cohesive React framework. I just think Next.js, Remix and other newcomers are ultimately going to achieve that way better than Gatsby.
