The Embarrassing Ruby/Rails Subreddit Chronicles 2025-10-09
Briefly

"This covers an interaction that happened after responding truthfully to "Dear Rubyists: Shopify Isn't Your Enemy". I have covered multiple times the mean discriminatory ways Ruby/Rails subreddit members treat some Rubyists, which started happening only in the last 10 years."
"Now, I will be regularly sharing examples of that for everyone to see to increase the level of awareness of the un-Ruby-community-like meanness, lack of sympathy, lying, and discrimination that Ruby/Rails subreddit members practice and moderators tolerate to the detriment of the Ruby on Rails community."
