I see the arguments and they resonate with me (e.g. boring tech). However, rails has some pretty unique footguns compared to other frameworks [^1]. I would vastly prefer some other framework that isn't built on a meta-programming language that essentially has a narrow niche (e.g. django).

Further, it's 2024, building on top of a language / framework without proper compile-time tooling (e.g. static types, capacity for an LSP) is a terrible idea.
