There's this weird conceit that Ruby On Rails somehow has a monopoly on developer experience, that Ruby On Rails gives developers pleasure that is unique and uncopyable - a unique and utterly amazing and incomprehensibly awesome developer experience that no other language or framework can replicate. Rails developers smugly assert that Ruby on Rails is more productive than anything else out there. I call BS on the "Ruby On Rails is the very best by far" conceit. Ruby On Rails has a monopoly only on the perception that its developer experience and productivity is off the charts. Ruby On Rails is just another language and framework. There's literally nothing that makes it different or particularly special compared to anything else. Developers everywhere with Python or nodejs or TypeScript or C# or Golang have a developer experience that is just as great, without the high handed conceit that what they are doing is amazingly better than anything else.
