I wanna host my nextjs application on a VPS (On Hostinger for example) instead of Vercel, and i am wondering what the differences are, except for the pricing which is obvious..

Yes, you have only one server here. So all request will be handled by this server. So you might want to think about how to solve that. Or maybe you have not that much traffic, so that's not a problem
