As someone new who started with NextJS v13.4 on AWS, I am also disappointed that AWS/GCP/Others don't support all of Vercel's features. That being said, the commenters here are being unfair and unreasonable.

NextJS 13.4+ is nothing short of incredible. Are you telling me I can get a free, faster, opinionated, React implementation with 10's of finicky/unreliable/3rd-party Node_Module dependencies now seamlessly baked in for free? With a unified/simple build process too?

NextJS is nothing short of a lifesaver for small/indie web dev teams!

I do have my struggles + bloat + bugs using AWS instead of Vercel to host, no doubt, but that's out of my own cheapness/stubbornness. Vercel is not a charity, its a business -- I'm disappointed by commenters here basically complaining they don't "work for free".



The idea is not to "work for free", the idea is to avoid single vendor situation when it comes to hosting.
