This simply isn't true.
You are stuck in the past and unwilling to adapt and learn new, in fact, better alternatives.
I'm currently using Go with Ent and Gqlgen and Relay extension on the backend and React vite with Relay graphql client as well as React-oidc-context for oidc with zitadel as the oidc idp.
It doesn't take 2 days to make a simple form.
You need to get put your comfort zone and learn.
I built a classifieds site in 3 weeks. Including admin ui.
I'd call that as productive as it gets.
There's currently as library in the works where you will be able to tell generative AI to make a frontend just from showing it the graphql schema.
I am not stuck in the past. I moved to Clojure and jumped to devstacks just like everyone else.
Speaking of generative AI, I use and pay for v0 for frontend generation, tried Contember to generate backends from specification (the CEO is a guy I know for almost 2 decades), I pay for Cursor, ChatGPT, Claude Sonnet. I moved from Bootstrap to TailWind (which I don't like, to be honest).
But honestly, many things are just much slower than something like Rails/Django/Laravel+Bootstrap.
You might like Yohn's PicoCSS. It encourages semantic HTML everything is ready for you out of the box and he added some features that give it a little Bootstrap utility feel.
This makes it so there is no usage of `!important` anytime you need to make your own CSS and it would normally be difficult because of the base CSS library you are using.
It's nice having everything working out of the box and when I need to override anything it's easy peasy.

That sounds way more complex than even the average Rails or Django app, let alone the Good Ol' Days™ of CGI scripts.
