I just spent two weeks wasting my time trying to code my pet project in various flavours of Next.js plus Prisma/Drizzle etc and gave up at having to constantly reinvent the wheel or work around some incomplete/naive implementation. And then went back to Rails where everything just works. Etc etc etc
It always sounds mean to say it, but there are definitely some things in JS land that feel way more amateur hour by comparison to more established ecosystems.
Somewhat unfair comparison but I expect authors to at least learn from the mistakes of the past.
