We're experiencing a global peak of Ruby meetups (globally). About 800-900 meetups in the last 12 months as per https://rubyconferences.org/meetups/
I'm hosting probably the largest Ruby meetup in San Francisco, see https://lu.ma/sfruby
Rails is not at the peak of visibility (like it was in 2008-2014), it is not a "default stack for new products" but here's what we see:
Rails startup just did a large IPO (Chime), another Ruby startup filed for IPO (Figma)
Rails startup just posted a record ARR growth (bolt.new)
Again, not the #1 or "default" choice, which is probably a good thing, because we are past the hype+disappointment cycle and on the pragmatic side of things.

Lots of startups and lots of success stories. See https://evilmartians.com/events/startups-on-rails-in-past-pr...
