Ask HN: Would you still choose Ruby on Rails for a startup in 2025?

It seems that Ruby and Ruby on Rails have some sort of renaissance now. I only know a bit of Ruby, but I hear it a lot that RoR is the best thing for prototyping and startups, even better than Django.

Personally, I write Go professionally and I love the simplicity and the absence of many dependencies. That said, Active Record and Active Job seem to do exactly what I write manually over and over again in Go due to having no frameworks.

Is Rails still that good?
