the only reason I use Nextjs is to avoid going through setting up the router, I found Gatsby complex to learn in 10 mins.

Gatsby definitely requires at least a couple weekends, but I really liked developing with it. As a backend person, it feels very "backend-y" if that's a word.

What complexities are you running into with router in React? (I'm genuinely curious, I had to use it a few weeks ago for a simple app and found it surprisingly simple).

no complexities in particular, but with next I just don't have to think about it.
Have you tried react-router v6 alpha ? The API is minimal and easy to understand.
