I've yet to find anything that comes close to Rails in programmer productivity for the web. So, as long as programmer productivity is a concern, it's relevant.

EDIT: On the other hand, I wouldn't choose Rails for a project where the main concern is performance/scalability

Try ASP.NET. It’s managed to take learn most of the lessons (what to avoid and what to replicate) from RoR and is built around a better language (C# or others of your choice) and environment (Visual Studio and MSDN) to boot.

Now that .NET with .NET Core is officially a first-class citizen on Linux, there really no good reason not to embrace it.

Except that Visual Studio 2017 is a dog, especially on Windows 10.
