While looking for the blog’s RSS feed (sadly it doesn’t appear to have one anymore), I noticed that the size of the HTML alone was nearly 5 MB uncompressed. Over the course of scrolling to the bottom of the page, it loads tons of 4+ MB JSON files. The unscaled author images and numerous tracking scripts also contribute to the enormous payload. I don’t know enough about Next.js internals to say what went wrong here, but that seems ridiculous for a simple blog.

Yeah, it's definitely out there. With NoScript on it's not noticeably slow or anything and I obviously see just the main page load, which works, and makes me further question why any of the included JS is even necessary.
