Why I don't use Ruby On Rails.

5 Aug 2006

It's simple, the community around it are a bunch of bigots. See this post on macslash.

The poor guy asks for something simple and gets flamed to death by a bunch RoR idiots who are acting like they need to justify their choices, no thank you. You'd swear its the new third reigh.

There are countless reasons why someone would want to stick to PHP, why does he need to face up to this kind of abuse just because he made a choice?

People seem to forget that the world doesn't stop at RoR and PHP. There *are* actually many other frameworks, and many more superior languages than even Ruby.
