Can we get this merged? I don't like the fact I have to choose either an older coveralls gem or older simplecov.

Hi @bastelfreak. (Cc: @mrexox)

Hoping this will resolve any questions of support you have for a Ruby-based Coveralls Integration:

tl;dr:
Please try coveralls-ruby-reborn, which is a more up-to-date fork of coveralls-ruby that has been far better maintained and supported over the last few years by @tagliala (🙏 ). You should be able to just replace the gem reference in your Gemfile.

Details:
We (Coveralls team) have been putting our efforts toward the Coveralls Universal Coverage Reporter, having recently added support for many more coverage report formats (which includes Simplecov) and CI services.

Eventually, the Reporter will replace node-coveralls as the underlying integration behind our two official CI service extensions, the Coveralls Github Action and Coveralls Orb for CircleCI. In fact, v2 of the Coveralls Github Action with the Reporter is now available; as is v2.1.0 of the Coveralls Orb with Reporter as base.

We will continue supporting users of all Coveralls Language Integrations (see left nav of docs), but our long-term goal is to make using Coveralls an easier and more standardized experience, and to make it easier for us to support users.

While we continue providing support for all Language Integrations, we will also do our best to update the community on the most up-to-date and well-maintained versions of each (Ex. Ruby integrations).
