henk: To echo what weaksauc_ is saying, modern stable Rubies are broadly compatible.
<havenwood>
If you care about modern features, use latest stable or newer.
<havenwood>
*quite modern
<havenwood>
Latest stable is quite stable.
<havenwood>
3.4.2 is the current version to use.
<havenwood>
Ruby has chosen a conservative path so you can be liberal in updating.

I think you are both not really understanding what I’m asking and I’m currently not sure how I could make it any clearer /-:
<henk>
you seem to be saying "just use latest, it’s fine" but that does not answer my question at all
<henk>
I mean: a gemfile is about declaring dependencies, right? including versions. so that bundler or even just people can satisfy the dependencies of a piece of software. and the versions are usually not about "yeah, latest works" but about ">=2.7", i.e. what one minimally needs. that’s what I am asking about. is there any programmatic way for finding out which minimum versions are required. it’s not
<henk>
about "uh oh, I don’t know whether this code will work with latest bleeding edge release candidate", i.e. not about backwards compatibility, but about communicating to people whether the ruby on their redhat 3.5 or whatever century old system will be able to run it. and for me to possibly reconsider using some new feature in my code that will make requirements jump from "something from 10 years ago
<henk>
will work" to "you need a version from 1 year ago".

henk: Ruby 3.2 is about to be in security maintenance and no longer receive bug fixes so you have exactly two choices for Rubies, Ruby 3.3.7 and Ruby 3.4.2. Pick either.
<havenwood>
Ruby 2.7 has known critical security vulnerabilities and bugs that will never be patched. You don't need to know if your gems work to know it's past end of life.
<henk>
havenwood: I’m starting to suspect you are intentionally missing the point and are deliberately ignoring reality /-:
<leah2>
there's no way of knowing which older versions of ruby run your code except for trying it
<henk>
leah2: ack, thanks
<leah2>
make a ci matrix if you need to support ancient versions
<leah2>
but note that also gem dependencies can influence which version still works
<henk>
yeah, this can be quite complex, I imagine …
<leah2>
also writing ruby code that still works on old versions is not difficult
<leah2>
but you kinda need to know which features to avoid :)
