AngularJs had/has much worse and more criticism then rails and it's much younger.
Webpack, React etc... are not frameworks in the sense that Rails and AngularJs are frameworks, if you started with them and something in them is not like you like, you can use other libraries alongside them easily enough or replace them without huge sunk cost.
This isn't true for Rails (Or Django, or AngularJs) which are huge frameworks that touch every part of your development process.
- matt4077 10y agoWell, but that's because Angular sucked. I mean, even the developers agreed and wrote something new without thinking of a new name. I wasn't neccessarily defending Rails as being "better than neutral" (although I think it is). I just felt the attitude at HN is negative to a degree that isn't objective any more, and that, to me, seems like it is less informational and more hurtful for a few people I have deep respect for.
