then I have this, but the name of the message is different depending on the conditional and it doesn't feel very clean:

query GET_MESSAGES($community: ID, $isGeneral: Boolean!) {
  messages
  (where: {community: {id: $community}}) @skip(if: $isGeneral) 
  {
    text 
    id
  }
   unfiltered: messages @include(if: $isGeneral) {
    id
    text
  }
}
