I remember Jose Valim’s work on this in Ruby ~15 years ago. And then he went on to create Elixir and we never looked back.

Ruby hasn't stopped either and the last few years have seen a lot of improvement in it's concurrency story. I still prefer it to Elixir, that's just personal preference rather than a weigh up.
How would you compare Ruby/Rails to Elixir/Phoenix these days, based on completeness of framework, language performance, concurrency, etc?
Memories here as well! Was working in Rails full time back then and dabbled in Elixir to some very fun experiments.
