node-fetch is specifically a NodeJS library. With Next, if a page is rendered on the server, it will run in a Node environment. If it's rendered by the browser, it will run in the browser.
If you try to use node-fetch in the browser, it will probably fail. What you can try is to replace node-fetch with isomorphic-fetch, which will give you an equivalent fetch method you can safely use in both environments.
