As a freelancer, the value prop of learning Rails is that the market of projects you can take on becomes much larger—there's a lot of legacy Rails code out there that freelancers get hired to work on. I'd say its much more valuable from a business perspective than either go or rust. As a developer, however, my opinion is very different. I've been doing Rails work for about ten years now and while in the beginning it felt great, I see it now as a big liability in terms of long-term growth of a project. "Just add a gem" is neither a good scalability nor a good growth story on a project.
