your page probably isn't a [client component](https://nextjs-faq.com/when-client-component-in-app-router)

import React from "react";
import useSWR from "swr";


const fetcher = (...args) => fetch(...args).then(res => res.json())

export default function App() {
  const { data, error, isLoading } = useSWR(
    "https://rickandmortyapi.com/api/character",
    fetcher
  );

  if (error) return "An error has occurred.";
  if (isLoading) return "Loading...";
  return (
    <>
    Loading...
    </>
  );
}
it throws following error

btw you shouldn't make your page a client component tho, instead keep it server and import client into it
