Sorbet is very useful, but the ergonomics suck. It’s fucking difficult to write rspec tests. The performance overhead of writing sorbet on rails in a big codebase is so much that we have turned it off. The pre-interpreter type checking is somewhat useful.
The alpha releases are also a big concern. We are stuck on a 300 commit (release) old build and can never upgrade safely.
We have also never been able to get the VSCode extensions to run.
Thanks for Sorbet, but I’d suggest people outside Stripe to look elsewhere.
