the kinds of apps that benefit from SSR are those that mostly display static information. for example, blogs, landing pages, e-commerce websites, etc.

if you're choosing to build these apps in React for some reason, then i don't know what to tell you. you're a bad engineer making bad engineering choices. there are better, cheaper, more resilient options for building these apps than React.

but for some reason, these are exactly the sorts of apps that NextJS wants to enable. apps that should not be built in the first place. it's bizarre.

@s3thi I think it also skews towards early stages of product development. Nextjs+vercel has been one of those really low friction starter kits for frontend engineers, and it very quickly becomes costly to switch out of it.
