      I propose the following version support changes for Mongoid 8.0:

      • Drop Rails 5.1 and earlier, keep 5.2+
      • Drop Ruby 2.5, keep 2.6+

      Note that Rails 5.1 went EOL in 25 Aug 2019, and Ruby 2.5 is EOL as of 31 Mar 2021 (Ruby 2.6 is also already EOL)

      Given the ease of upgrading Rails 5.x --> Rails 5.2 and Ruby 2.5 --> 2.6, and the fact that the upgrades can be done seamlessly on Mongoid 7.4, I think this will have minimal impact on users. (Speaking as a user myself who has done these upgrades.)
