Vercel alternatives are getting traction and relevance after Vercel and CEO controversies like last weeks https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45416353 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45416353

Vercel is like other big corporations that places like HN and Reddit like to hate, most C suites signing off consulting contracts and partner deals couldn't care less. As such there are plenty of deployments, where the only deployment option is between Vercel, Netlify and co, usually Vercel ends up winning on the portfolio and partner deals. You don't see geeks selling their Apple gear in droves, despite the deals that its CEO has been doing as well.

  What Apple executive has published photographs of themselves being giddy next to a person with an arrest warrant from the ICC?

        Depends on where one stands on wiping out US democracy and those supporting those efforts.

      Fine, no ICC arrest warrant yet but good enough.

  The idea of the average Redditor turning against a company because of pro-Israel sentiment is a little humorous. But I agree overall: the average American plays lip service when it comes to morality. Threatening to cancel some subscriptions after years of carnage is peak slacktivism. What the tech leaders are doing is much more honest from that perspective, no games are being played. What the 20s have shown is that the American populace is a paper tiger.

    Heaven forbid that anyone discover the horrible things our tech overlords are doing in the world.

Is there a good list of alternatives + reviews / GH stars anyone can recommend?

I have a persistent feeling that Pro-Paliz people who have those kinds of reactions to a famous X who went to Israel/met a Prime Minister/met a Jew or whatever, operate in a completely different reality, with their large parts of brain activity completely overwhelmed with emotions of pure hate ( that probably comes from untreated trauma, mental illness). Here we have people who use Intel, Nvidia chips that are developed in Israel. With leaders who are very friendly with the people and the government of Israel. And employees who spent many months of combat in Gaza. OpenAI who just signed a contract with Nubeius(Israeli company). But no, let's cancel Vercel CEO, or celebrate that some noname artist blocks streaming in Israel. It's so pathetic and sad. But I also understand it's all emotion and that some people live through their lives based on that.

  I would argue that not understanding why that photo would be controversial requires a greater emotional disconnect and lack of awareness. Believing that not all lives are equally valuable is generally considered a symptom of the disordered.

It does seems it's all emotion on your end. Projecting much? Tried empathy for a change? > OpenAI who just signed a contract with Nubeius(Israeli company) I bet there'd be controversy on that too if attempts to raise awareness weren't even further buried by puppets.
