Very little happened in Ruby since 3.2 or even 3, it feels stagnated. Still a very beautiful language from my point of view, but yeah, stagnation.

Wish we'd see more action on RBS, perhaps getting Sorbet to core or something. At least having some sort of consensus in the community.

Or even some considerable project in the JIT, dunno!

Python is definitely ahead in types, work on removing the GIL... list is huge.

This is always my biggest complaint about Ruby. Last time I made a fuss about this on HN someone pointed out rbs-inline which might make it into the core rbhs gem itself soon! This would be huge for the Ruby community imo

I was so disappointed in how RBS was executed it caused me to give up on Ruby and move onto something else. I haven't looked back.

I'm still a Ruby fan but I share your immense, nearly immeasurable disappointment on the implementation of RBS. It's as though someone was tasked to add types to Ruby but do it specifically in a way that would guarantee zero adoption.

Out of curiosity, why was RBS so poorly executed and adopted?
