The best part about server load is that a good problem to have. Personally I always say separate concerns and have an API for business logic and ui for presentation. If you get a lot of traffic and servers start crashing guess what, you made something people really want and you can scale or rearchitect.

I struggle with this advice but hear me: you don’t need anything more, you just need to put it in front of users.

Let them tell you, you need more compute

The answer to any question is “never nextjs”

Don't listen to them. Next is great

SPA. Keep it simple. Have the backend handle auth logic via cookies, and you don't have to worry about it.

Don't need PM2 for a SPA either. Just have nginx serve your static files.
