Ive only used ruby a handful of times, so my comment might be ignorant. But other than community , what does ruby and ror do better than say elixir & phx, i feel like the latter is leagues ahead simply because nothing can compare to the beam platform for soft real time systems, you have fault tolerance, nifs, actor model , you can have millions of processes running at the same time for cheap, easy to reason about concurrency , fp makes code concise imo, otp, the beam gc doesnt stop the world etc I just think on paper phx is superior thanks to the beam platform

That being said use what you like and hotwire native sounds cool will give it a try. I also think the author of the blog shouldve went a bit deeper with his points
