Next.js has definitely gotten heavier. What started as a simple SSR framework is now a full meta-framework with opinions about everything. If you're looking for something lighter, give Astro a shot. The philosophy is refreshing - zero JS by default, only hydrate the interactive islands you actually need. Works great for content-heavy sites. For full-stack apps with similar patterns to Next.js but less magic, Remix and SvelteKit are worth exploring too. What's your main pain point with Next.js? Complexity, Vercel lock-in, build times, or something else?
