Hm okay I was curious because I remember how popular rails got around like 2012-2014.

Since then I feel like most people just opt for go/node instead in my experience. Better performance and easier to deploy and scale.

I would say the hype around Rails has settled since a long time ago, that is maybe why you feel that but now since Rails 8, it is gathering a little bit momentum again.

But you should correlate what the talk of the town is with how much something is being used, it is still heavily used and a good option for startups.
