I downvoted you and I wanted to say why:

1) Referring to DHH and others as a "our old masters" instinctively bothered me.

2) While I appreciate that Elixir and Phoenix have Rails connections and can learn from it, I'd prefer it not become just a place for Rails refugees where it turns into a huge circle jerk about how Rails is terrible and Phoenix is great (which happens all too often in communities).

Other than that, I agree. But we should start something new.



I appreciate the honesty here, but don't see how this is a reason to downvote his comment. His comment contributes meaningfully to the discussion.
