I wonder to what extent are those 'a rails app'. Those are all huge apps with many microservices I would assume. Don't tell me Twitch backend is all rails.

- vvillena 8y agoWhile those examples may not be pure Rails apps anymore, it was the way they started. Rails was essential in making all those startups succeed and grow massively.
- benbristow 8y agoDefinitely. Rails is great as a starting point. By the time a product/company has started to 'outgrow' it then of course migrating away might make sense and there'll more than likely be a large enough team at the time to do the migration. A bit of YAGNI is clear here.
