Seeking advice: Nextjs or Rails for a solo project or startup?

I'm a solo developer in the early stages of product development and must choose between Rails and Next.js for my project. Which technology stack do you recommend for a startup? Here are specific factors I'm considering:

-Development Speed: Which framework streamlines development for maximum productivity and iteration?

-Scalability: Which stack better handles increased traffic and user load for future scaling?

-Community and Ecosystem: Which framework offers a larger and more active community of support and resources?

-Learning Curve: Which framework has clear documentation and an easy learning curve for beginner-friendliness?

-Flexibility and Extensibility: Which stack allows for easy feature integration, external service connections, and customizable requirements?

Based on the above factors, I seek insights, experiences, and recommendations to guide my decision. If there are other considerations, please share those also.

Thanks for your valuable input as I undertake this exciting journey of building software!
