I still really like rails. It’s really fun until your codebase reaches a certain size. At that point you better have a large suite of test which becomes a problem of it self because the tests will take forever to complete.
I tried sorbet a couple of times and totally get why it’s useful but imo it’s not just lacking (e.g. compared with what can be done with TS or even a simple type system like golang) but it also removes all the fun parts of ruby / rails.
Right, the test culture is very silly to me. Thousands of tests and long CI times, basically just doing a poor invention of a compiler. Dynamic types are so much extra work.
