> I can't say I have come across much zealotry in the last 8 years :-)
This meme is from 2010, the dust has settled. But there are plenty of tools generating the same kind of zealotry these days. It used to be "why don't you use MongoDB ?", now it's "why don't you rewrite [X] in Rust ?". Call them early adopters instead of zealots if you want. Some of these early adopters just act like they've discovered sliced bread and obviously others are fools for not using it. And later the dust settles.
