I disagree. Ruby has no more elegance or consistency than the other popular language, and it objectively has a much poorer selection of libraries.

Lack of libraries is noticeable - especially since I've worked with python for past years.

However Ruby's syntax is way nicer. I can actually write what I think instead of having to translate my thoughts into python. Of course over time working with python has made my thoughts to conform into more pythonic way, but I still occasionally find myself thinking how something would have been way nicer to write in ruby instead.

I disagree. Ruby’s syntax is not nicer.
