I'd consider it a combination of being time-tested and lacking hype. Ruby on Rails is a good example of something which seems to get next to no hype compared to its heyday(even 7 years ago when I started with it), but still powers thousands of businesses and has lots of job postings.
- nicoburns 6y agoI think it's mainly about being reliable. For instance, I'd consider Hasura "boring" in the good sense. It's fancy in that it allows you to do realtime queries on top of postgres. That's new and exciting. But it's also boring in that it took about half an hour to set it up. I've zero problems with it since, and the pnly maintenance is that it occasionally propmts me to update to thw latest version. Which takes about 5 minutes and has yet to cause an breakage.
