It seems like Astro is picking up a lot of the simpler use cases that Next used to serve. It's much simpler and doesn't have a lot of fancy bolts included, but a lot of sites don't really need them either... I think Next + SSG jumpstarted a pretty cool revolution in web hosting, at least, where now you can easily use any of a dozen different frameworks and host them anywhere from Vercel to Netlify to Cloudflare Pages to an S3, etc. These things come in cycles. Today's simple, elegant indie darling is tomorrow's bloated behemoth. Happens to everything from JS frameworks to browsers to entire ecosystems, in this case the Web itself. I doubt anything we discuss today will still be relevant in ten years. Maybe not even five...
