Yeesssss. I'm liking what I'm seeing in the NextConf livestream. Next.js has been bending the meaning of "static" and "dynamic" for a long time. It's good to be up front about it.
Next.js 16 is still investing heavily in HTTP streaming which may be counterproductive for many sites.

You won’t see it directly on the video feed, but know that as I do this @pantheon.io livestream with @jazzsequence.com in an hour about @github.com integration, I will be oh so much more effective because, for the first time, I’ll be streaming from my new double-standing desk situation.

I made a silly video about the new Push to Pantheon GitHub Action that enables simpler pushing to @pantheon.io for those using Actions from @github.com. Try it if you already need to push to Pantheon as part of your GitHub Actions flow.
