Damian C.

Bradley Schaefer<p>On a constructive note, if you're stuck on <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/Rails" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Rails</span></a>:</p><p>The easiest way I've found to run a Rails app that does not need a database is to set the database to an in-memory SQLite database. Rails expects a DB, so give it to them.</p><p>In your Gemfile:</p><p>```<br>gem "sqlite3"<br>```</p><p>In your database.yml:</p><p>```<br>production<br> adapter: sqlite3<br> database: ":memory:"<br> pool: 5<br> timeout: 5000<br>```</p><p>Not sure if you even need the pool/timeout, but I'm not golfing this here.</p>

James Smith 💾<p>I have *no* time to do this, but serious question, who would actually be up for using or helping with a community-driven hard fork of <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Rails" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Rails</span></a>? I doubt the <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/RailsFoundation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RailsFoundation</span></a> will do anything, TBH.

James Smith 💾<p>I cannot state this clearly enough: David Heinemeier Hanson can go fuck himself right into the sea.</p><p>DHH is the antithesis of everything the Ruby community has always stood for, and I am once again begging for the <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Rails" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Rails</span></a> team to completely cut ties with this shitstain, via a hard fork if necessary.</p><p>I will be the *first* to switch my gemfile over to a fascist-free Rails.</p>
