I mean... Let's pause for a minute and remove the year, and remove the language / framework. What are we trying to accomplish?
If we know something really well and there are enough developers to support an ecosystem and the talent pool in your <however you decide your region> is big enough just use whatever you want.
PHP in 2018? SURE.
C++ in 2018? SURE (You masochist)
Rails in 2018? Youre damn right I would.
GO in 2018? OK. Fine. Whatever.
This is highly opinionated, but our jobs are to make stuff that works in a predictable, less risky way. Do that.
