That's not how the right tool for the job works: the tool that results in the smallest bundle size and the most impressive web metrics is absolutely worthless if 99% of the value in what you're making is it existing and the creator of said tool doesn't feel like building out a SPA.

Of the tens of thousands of people who found my tool useful, the only people who ever complained where Hacker News users, and the tool simply would not exist if I had gone and wasted my time spinning up Next, realizing the app router is garbage, RSC has no place in most React apps, then going back to pages router, then rediscovering how awful NextAuth is, then...

Which is exactly how some of my otherwise interesting side projects die too.
