(Maybe) not in particular related to Hey.com, but I'm worried about the amount of people (apparently 50%) who left Basecamp, and how that will reflect on the future development of their services (Basecamp, Hey) but also on Ruby on Rails and the surrounding ecosystem (like Stimulus, Turbo etc). I'm one of those (rare?) folks who still think Rails is a fantastic framework and it suits most of my private projects just fine (I haven't felt the need for a SPA approach in my last 2 years) - but I'm now hesitant to start anything new on Rails because I don't know who will pick up maintenance of Stimulus, Turbo and multiple Rails gems.

- jw1224 5y ago> I'm worried about the amount of people (apparently 50%) who left Basecamp Are you saying Basecamp lost half its users? Source?
- detaro 5y agothey are talking about employees, not users. (no clue of the number is correct, I think I saw ~40% mentioned)
