Curious if React folks here have strong thoughts on SSR vs. SPA?

ssr is plain stupid

users have supercomputers in their hands

do not outsource computing to centralized machines

also makes cdn's less effective (as opposed to serving lightweight spa)

crawlers run js now, for the ones who don't you can use prerender libs

Your favorite prerender lib?
