I have said it before, and I'll say it again. @nextjs.org docs are just so good. Being able to flick between versions of docs during a migration is such a help.

New in Firefox nightly (146.0a1 2025-10-19): large lists of unused CSS custom properties are collapsed by default. This not only reduces clutter, it also massively speeds up the rendering of the inspector panel in some cases.

Codebase updated to Next 16 in under an hour. I think that's a PB!
