When I was contracting full time, a _very_ large portion of my time was paid for in Rails work. Something like 90%. I market myself as a true generalist, basically a CTO-for-hire, and still the contracts I landed almost always involved Rails in some way.

To me that is sensible in that a strongly opinionated framework is conducive to hiring temporary talent into.

Not to disagree with your conclusion just that it seems likely to bias in favor of ruby and rails.

That wasnt it at all. It was a lack of available talent. So many rails devs have "moved on" and theres a real supply/demand problem in the market in terms of running software vs available devs.
