Ruby end of life: end of support by version
Ruby-Community · Development & DevOps
For Ruby by Ruby-Community, patchletter knows 12 support cycles. 9 of them have already ended and receive no more security updates. The next support window closes on 31/03/2027, that is in 172 days.

When does support end for which Ruby version?
A cycle is a maintained version line. Where a date is given, support ends on that day — after it the vendor ships no more security updates for that line.

Where does the EOL data for Ruby come from?
From the open endoflife.date project, which collects vendors' official support commitments. patchletter reconciles the cycles daily; the Ruby data is as of 30/09/2026. In case of doubt the vendor's own lifecycle page applies — patchletter deliberately stores no vendor full texts.
