Not OP but FYI React Router v7 (fka "Remix") has all the key features of Next.js but none of the bloat or Vercel-driven enshittification.


My personal experience is Remix has all kinds of problems akin to the issues in the blog post, including the mess that is remix -> react router v7. When I worked with Remix a year ago logging and middlewares were also a disaster. For example it didn't have middlewares, and had no way to create a LocalContext from the host (e.g. Express or whatever you use) that first starts handling the request down through the remix app.

I also had the impression they would probably follow the Vercel style, framework as a business model, with it being sold to Shopify.I don't really know where it's all going, but it is not the sort of thing I would tie myself to.


Except when they ship v8 and you'll be forced to restructure your app to the whims of the library creators in case you need to update.
