So true. Best was ActiveRecord, the most cumbersome ORM I have ever met, it could create 20 SQL requests out of a simple query.

There must be a reason that Ruby dropped few places on Github's Octoverse 2018.

While I was never against Ruby, every time has its tools, it was the culture of the Ruby community which I didn't like. Being a Rubyist was always a good excuse to not help on the frontend or help with some devops.

Now they escape into Elixir which is the next good academic excuse to not help with the frontend because React is so working class...



Meanwhile, every devops environment I've ever worked in has been Ruby-first, to the point where I learned Ruby specifically for devops work.

I get that you are new here, but this place isn't big on shitposting.
