Agreed. I was fine with Railsconf focus last year of being "rock solid". Rails is still the best at what it does thanks to its community.
However, Rails 5 is moving to a direction that goes against the abstractions and platform it runs on. If I don't care about this, now I have even more code and dependencies in my Rails apps. On the other hand, if that is becoming the sanctioned way of building apps, I would rather do it elsewhere. To me it is a lose-lose situation.
