We use Ruby at work, for a team I'm only tangentially involved with, and I'm not a fan. I'd be curious to know what a company that uses it as their primary language looks like. It seems like there's a lot of funky edge cases especially in templating that have bitten us.
Has it really been 10-15 years since Ruby peaked in popularity? I never really paid much attention but I feel like time is a fiction.
