React Query:

• Handles automatic cache purging for inactive queries and garbage collection (which to me is very important)
• Query key generation, variables, and implicit query groups. The query key and variables that are passed to a query are less URL-based and much more flexible. Both the key (todos) and any variables ({ status: 'done' }) are used to compute the unique key for a query (and it's done in a very stable, deterministic way). This also allows you to use query "groups" when refetching, eg. you can refetch every query that has a todos key, regardless of variables, or you can target specific queries with (or without) variables. This architecture is much more robust and forgiving especially for larger apps.
• Query cancellation integration is baked into React Query. You can easily use this to wire up request cancellation in most popular fetching libraries, including but not limited to fetch and axios.

Thank you so much for your answer! I think this is a clear explanation and I hope whoever else looks for it can find it in the issues.
