I'm not a huge fan of Next and/or vercel. I'm in particular pissed off by the shady "call home metrics" thing they intentionally make it difficult to disable.

I'm not a huge fan of Next and/or vercel. I'm in particular pissed off by the shady "call home metrics" thing they intentionally make it difficult to disable. But suggesting that you can use express instead of Next, to me, is a clear indication you have absolutely no idea what Next is.
