> Another thing I don't like about Ruby is how much the community has embraced the Clean Code brand of readability snake oil.

This also puts me off every time, and I've dealt with people who embrace this a lot as a Ruby programmer. Fortunately, you can ignore them and still enjoy writing Ruby code the way you want.

Curious why this suggestion was downvoted to hell.

> I agree. He has scolded me before though, for submitting code he didn't like the look of.

Heh, do you have a link to the PR?

I am not suggesting Jeremy Evans simply because of politics. I think he's very underrated in the community and the work he does is incredible. Having interacted with him a number of times, he's been really helpful and pleasant. I think those qualities make him a good candidate.

Fun fact: Jeremy won the Ruby Prize 2019: https://rubyprize.jp/19_iv-nominees01-2-en.html

I'd much prefer Jeremy Evans[0] taking over rather than DHH. Jeremy is a Ruby core committer (and much more pleasant person), unlike DHH.
