Knowing that we would want OpenGraph support and eventually SEO, we seriously considered SSR solutions like Next and Remix. Ultimately, though, we felt that they introduced a fair amount of complexity with relatively little upside – the biggest benefit being "free" server-side rendering for OG and SEO.

A CSR solution was simpler and I would argue potentially more performant, but we still needed to solve the OG problem. We considered outsourcing the server-side rendering to someone like prerender.io, but we didn't love the idea of relying on a third-party, particularly when our product reqs weren't that demanding.
