I hope you're right as I much prefer ruby syntax too!
I just think that maybe rubyists overstate the attractions of the 'programmer friendly' nature of ruby a bit as outside of rails it's lost out vs Python for example. And Rails is popular because of the web app DSL that it provides (and so relies on Ruby Metaprogramming which crystal doesn't have).
- chillfox 6y agoI use Ruby for work all the time and Crystal for hobby projects and I still haven’t used Rails or Ruby’s meta programming, but I have used Crystals macros.
