On one of the more recent projects we worked on we tried to make a NextJS app but we ran into a huge roadblock with deployment. Simply put, if you're starting from nothing, there doesn't seem to be anything out there that explains how you might deploy a NextJS app on AWS or Google Cloud, etc. And putting my cynical hat on, I ended up pointing at ZEIT Now as the reason.

Super fair point about the documentation lacking in that area. At my day job, we run Next apps in K8s hosted on AWS pretty easily.
Nader Dabit did a great write up on how to deploy to AWS using Amplify.
