[ruby-core:79532] Immutable Strings vs Symbols

From: Daniel Ferreira <subtileos@...>

Hi,

I would like to ask ruby core members the following question if it is possible:

With the advent of Immutable Strings in ruby 3 what will be the
difference between Immutable Strings and Symbols?

Performance wise will Immutable Strings be similar to Symbols?

If we put the hypothesis of removing Symbols from ruby would that have
any negative impact on performance?

What other side effects could we envision?

Thanks,

Daniel
