Hasn't Ruby been unfashionable for a while now?

Yet another sign that Ruby's popularity is waning.

Isn’t Ruby Jitted now?

The hipster backlash on Ruby continues.

Or... maybe it's not AMPs fault (not that I'm a fan of AMP). Maybe it's just that Ruby is quickly going out of vogue and you're just seeing the signs.

It damaged Ruby's popularity? You feel Ruby hasn't been popular enough the past few years?

This makes Ruby sound far more attractive than it really is to me.

is ruby done too?

Ruby is maturing, not dying. It has lost much of its fadish hype.

Mikeb85 | karma 11376 | avg karma 2.31 · | 2022-11-06 14:25:03

Ruby never went away. It just used to have an extreme amount of hype and now is a mature and, dare I say, slightly "boring" language.

francoisdevlin | karma 1101 | avg karma 4.27 · | 2009-12-07 12:40:50

Well, looks like Ruby just got boring.

How do you think Ruby's worse?

ericb | karma 7630 | avg karma 3.36 · | 2020-09-11 01:24:32

I love ruby, but this is awful. Hope it goes away.

astrec | karma 3615 | avg karma 4.52 · | 2008-03-24 12:30:50+00:00

Ha! In all seriousness, Ruby doesn't fare any better.

Ashishlin | karma 21 | avg karma 5.25 · | 2009-07-06 03:31:59+00:00

Ruby at the moment

afandian | karma 6812 | avg karma 3.55 · | 2022-03-02 04:15:56

It's been a while but this looks very much like Ruby to me.

Why are we still talking about Ruby?

matthewmacleod | karma 17455 | avg karma 4.64 · | 2015-06-23 16:28:55+00:00

Well, that's not true. Ruby's changed massively since the 1.8 series. What are you expecting to see that you're not?

TazeTSchnitzel | karma 26116 | avg karma 2.81 · | 2012-08-30 18:05:44+00:00

What's so bad about Ruby?

jimbokun | karma 17789 | avg karma 3.01 · | 2014-06-07 20:36:15

Looks very Ruby-esque.
