I still don't see this anywhere at the top of your website and not deceptively hidden and buried on your website.
Also:
> I'm Lee. I work on Next.js.
> I lead the community for Next.js
Isn't explicit, there are a few open source contributors who work on Next.js but don't work at Vercel.
So my point still stands on this being an ad for Vercel.
