You are not alone. Joined a company with a rails codebase and I really came to hate convention over configuration if you are not familiar with the convention. I've found Ruby on Roda and dry-rb much more understandable. I guess it's really a matter of taste. I've did C++ and Java before and while I appreciate Ruby rails is too much magic for me. I also hate to run into errors in runtime that a typed language would have catched.
