I'm really not a fan of the next/image component at all. It's so unintuitive to use.

Hey, sorry about this. What could we do better?

  Maybe this is already fixed in 11.1, but static site generation seemed broken for me with create next app. I had to go in and remove usage of this feature before static build will work.

    Are you using `next build`? It should work as expected when `create-next-app`. If not, then would you mind opening up a reproducible issue?

      Will do! The issue is with export, build works https://nextjs.org/docs/advanced-features/static-html-export https://nextjs.org/docs/advanced-features/static-html-export

  Not OP but since you're asking: next/image was unusable last time I tried it. I ended up using next-optimized-images, which didn't feel a lot better but was at least usable for my case. I wanted to compile the images at build time instead. While I'm at it, next/link also had some bonkers defaults such as the link prefetching on view instead of on hover (neither of which could be disabled, either…). I hope all that is getting some attention soon. If I can offer some frank feedback: I've had an overall positive experience with the framework, but there have been clear quality issues here and there and I'm always concerned when I see a large feature churn without a high amount of attention being put into existing bugs. I filed three bugs while porting an app over half a year ago (https://github.com/vercel/next.js/issues/20984 https://github.com/vercel/next.js/issues/20984, https://github.com/vercel/next.js/issues/21474 https://github.com/vercel/next.js/issues/21474, https://github.com/vercel/next.js/issues/21461 https://github.com/vercel/next.js/issues/21461). None of them have even been acknowledged by a dev yet. (That last one was a doozy, too; I'm not actually sure it's a nextjs bug)

Interested in what’s the issue here, next.js’s image component has been amazing and a breeze for me so far.
