We've also come across the limitations of Rails as a one-size-fits-all solution for larger codebases. I don't think this is a fault of Rails, but more of the developers using the framework. Software engineering in general has more focus on a wide variety of design patterns and doesn't limit itself to one framework. In my opinion, Rails is the best framework to create wonderful web applications. Modeling business logic requires different kind of architectures than the simple MVC-ish structure Rails provides.

At MoneyBird we are using the Mutations gem to represent something like the interactors mentioned in this article. One major advantages of Mutations, is that is also does input filtering.
