A decent VS Code and Ruby on Rails setup
I saw no mention of RBS+Steep, the latter providing a LSP. I use it a lot and very much like it, although it's still young and needs love, but it's making good, steady progress! I've been very pleasantly surprised by some of the crazy things Steep can catch, completely statically!
You appear to be working on projects with Sorbet (which I tried to like but found it fell short in practice, notably outside of the app use case i.e it's mostly useless for gems) so it may be a tall order to try on those. Maybe you can give RBS+Steep a shot on some small project?
RBS: https://github.com/ruby/rbs
RBS collection (for those gems that don't ship RBS signatures in `sig`, integrates with bundler): https://github.com/ruby/gem_rbs_collection
Steep: https://github.com/soutaro/steep
VS Code: https://github.com/soutaro/steep-vscode
Sublime Text: https://github.com/sublimelsp/LSP
Vim (I'm working on it): https://github.com/dense-analysis/ale/pull/4671

Bringing more sweetness to ruby with sorbet types 🍦
1. Lack of LSP: Since this new type check solution is quite new (at the time of writing), we don't have nice editor support via LSP. Things like steep will probably solve this in the future, but it's not a reliable solution now. On the other hand, Sorbet has existed for many years on the market and already provides a lot of tools for code intelligence, you can see more in this blog post.

State of the Ruby language server (LSP) ecosystem / looking for suggestions
https://github.com/soutaro/steep Also a type checker. This one uses rbs files. Not sure what subset of LSP features it supports either.

Open-sourcing the Sorbet VS Code Extension
What type-checkers can use RBS? I find steep? Any others? Does anyone have a sense of how much use RBS is getting (and compared to Sorbet?) in the wild?

rbs collection was released!
rbs collection feature integrates this repository and tools use RBS, such as rbs command, Steep, and TypeProf.

Which one is a better VS Code language server for Ruby?
steep also can be run as a langserver, which is then used in the vscode plugin for type checking.

Static Typing in Ruby 3 Gives Me a Headache (But I Could Grow to Like It)
Once you have those in place, you use a tool called Steep, which is the official type checker "blessed" by the Ruby core team. Steep evaluates your code against your signature files and provides a printout of all the errors and warnings (similar to any other type checker, TypeScript and beyond).
