I think there are many RoR projects that continue to run, so probably demand still there - we've been maintaining several RoR projects for 7+ years. Recently we've stepped into several JS projects that have 2-3 competing JS frameworks in the same project. Any project becomes difficult to maintain over time without a continuous and thoughtful investment of time, but at least Rails doesn't have that particular problem of framework churn (even if parts of it may change as a whole it has an upgrade path that is well trodden). We do a lot of React/Next.js etc. work, but for the most part Rails is what we reach for (maybe with a sprinkling of React) when we have a standard web project, ie. most of them.
