If you've already mastered a system, then the n+1 case is going to be much more timely and cost-effective. So if you know RoR and you've got a similar team then go for it. But for greenfield projects I'm not sure one should go with Ruby on Rails, and this is coming from someone who used Ruby before Rails.
If I'm not mistaken, even 37 Signals made a new framework for their new Hey app.
Hotwired is a ruby gem that sits on top of Rails' existing Turbo approach: start with a regular server-rendered ERB page, layer on Turbo to allow for page updates without page refreshes (via XHR-fetched html fragments) and layer on Hotwire to sync state with websockets.
