I'm happy someone's challenging the Rails almost-monoculture in the Ruby ecosystem, but Hanami doesn't seem to bring much to the table. Is there anything in this release that Rails hasn't had for years?

Yes, some features now require a subscription - it's clear where this is going

Mac office suite is moving to the subscription model, too

In the 80s it was fairly common to consider C64, Amstrad 464 and ZX Spectrum 8 bit, while Amiga and Atari ST 16 bit. In Italy we even had two separate video game magazines: Zzap! for 8 bit and The Games Machine for 16 bit.

Same here, I tried all combinations with BetterDisplay but kept getting fuzzy fonts. It was very frustrating on a large 5k2k display

Buy second hand books if you can: wider selection, good for the environment, lower price (usually), supports small businesses (usually).

Yes, I've seen that, too. The rails way of doing things can feel like a terrible limitation to some developers, while others enthusiastically embrace it

Javascript handling in Rails was easy in the early versions, then became messy with the asset pipeline and webpacker, and is becoming simple again with the latest versions

I love rails and the recent improvements are great.

I have the impression, though, that these days it only appeals to those who picked it up before version 3 or 4, when it was smaller, maybe more understandable, and incredibly better than all the competing frameworks (except Django maybe).

If your first contact with rails is version 7+ and you’re only comfortable with JS/TS, then you’re not going to get it and might actually strongly dislike it

Planned obsolescence is sure at play here, but I blame the design choices of Jony Ive and his team (thinness above all).

Nice improvements. If you like a clean revision history and hate messy git rebases then you should dedicate a couple hours to jj.

I've got that display, too, and quite like it. Matte finish is essential (IMO) if you're annoyed by reflections.
