If you want to keep your hosting costs low and not be forced to take the steep path from “Hobby” to “Pro”, avoid NextJS’s ‘Image’ component. Only 1,000 images are included in the free “Hobby” plan and even with a “Pro” plan it costs after 5,000 images; $5 per 1,000 images. Of course, you also avoid the “data transfer” limitations which you can hit fast with an embedded video and traffic.
