we run next.js on the frontend and the page router to app router migration was really painful. rails having stable conventions sounds very good when you go through something like that. I keep thinking about this trade off - move fast with the latest thing or just pick boring tech that works for 5 years.
- chrisweekly 7mo agonextjs pages -> app router is a massive change: new paradigm, practically replatforming.
