Interesting. I didn't know if youtube started doing this for all videos, but this one shows only "featured" comments by default, so most of the negative ones are hidden.

Yeah it's a good way of avoiding lowercase hot takes and cry-laugh emoji people.

Aaron is exactly what you want in a community leader.
He's consistency both technical and funny. Plus he seems like a decent bloke overall (based on meeting him once in passing 15 years ago).

and somehow, DHH is the voice :))

Well DHH launched Rails and he owns this Rails Word conference so it's not too surprising he gave the opening keynote.
As he's no longer interested in Ruby or Rails, or at least by his own admission he's retired from programming, perhaps he'll do the decent thing and just step aside for more interested speakers to take over.
Aaron is a breath of fresh air, which is amazing considering he's been doing it for so long and so consistently.

After the opening keynote, this is a breath of fresh air. Kind of odd (but nice/well deserved!) to see him riff on DHH's keynote.
