>Why people think it can be related to Rails

Probably because there have been more high-profile stories of companies migrating off of Ruby on Rails to something else (e.g. Java, Go, etc) rather than vice-versa of migrating into it.

E.g. the high-profile story of Twitter's previous "whale fail" scaling problems supposedly being partially solved by switching from Ruby to Java/Scala/JVM : https://www.google.com/search?q=twitter+whale+fail+ruby+rail...

Ruby may be unfairly blamed but nevertheless, the narrative is already out there even though other big sites like Shopify, etc still use it.
