Coming from the Meteor.js days, I'm trying to implement a realtime chat POC
When playing with subscriptions in Prisma I noticed that the data only seems to show when something happens rather than giving me all of the data, and sending new data realtime.
Is this the expected behavior of subscriptions or am I misusing this functionality.
Also if anyone has advice on how to accomplish this using prisma could you please let me know

It is definitely possible to ask for the data that you changed as well! 🙂 Did you already check out the subscriptions tutorial: https://www.prisma.io/tutorials/build-a-realtime-graphql-server-with-subscriptions-ct11/

(the article uses Prisma bindings, but it should be pretty instructive in regards to the subscription API provided by Prisma)

the thread would be empty and only my new entries would be added to the conversation ..
