They've been mucking with the asset pipeline every single version and their forray into webpacker has been a disaster. Turbolinks and ActionCable have been attempts to compete with SPAs while still being SSR but both are just glitchy and a source of endless Heizenbugs. Thankfully Rails7 looks like they've restored sanity.

I have high hopes that Rails 7 will be much saner. Importmaps are such a Railsy solution, and if you need anything more jsbundling-rails will provide easy starters for ESbuild, Rollup and Webpack.

I must admit that zhe Turbolinks does glitchy stuff with the theme I ripped ( project is in the Ask-for-forgiveness stage ).

But you don't need to use Actioncable at all. But I do use it, to have my C/C++ clients communicate with the SaaS. Haven't experienced anything flaky there yet and I am glad a Websocket option was included.
