Interesting how Shopify went from the most pro-ruby company to what looks like unreasonably rapid divestment from it. Wonder what's going on.

Besides this article, what gives you that impression?

I seem to recall reading recently that Go was showing up in their org. May be mistaken or misremembering.

We’ve been using Go since 2013. We recently started using Rust, but it’s mainly eating away at Go’s usage rather than Ruby’s. Ruby continues to be our first-choice language for most problems.

Thanks for the clarification, I appreciate it!

Ruby is still the primary backend language at Shopify. Node is popular amongst partners.
