If you're building a blog or a not-so-big thing, Gatsby will be the choice. You could leverage several of the plugins and have some nice cool-looking site for your posts. Although I agree is kinda hard to learn at first and I personally haven't done much with it.

On the flip side, I have done stuff with Next.js because I joined a project at my job that used Next.js as the UI part for a Drupal backend and by learning how to use some of its features, I'm now like all in on Next.js because with their new features you can build things that are sooo flexible and get the good stuff from SSG and SSR.

I'm planning to build my Next projects with it. (pun intended) 😜

Haha, love the pun. 😂 Thanks for the input Juan! I'd love to hear how your experience with Next.js is as you continue to use it in your future projects.
