The only way to deactivate it is from your app&#x27;s Gemfile (remove gem &quot;rails&quot; and add all the active&#x2F;action gems individually). For new apps there&#x27;s a flag &quot;--skip-action-cable&quot;.
In the future probably the faye&#x2F;redis will probably be made adapter based (similar to ActiveRecord and ActiveJob) and exctracted in a gem. So if you want actioncable you&#x27;ll have to add a &quot;actioncable-faye-adapter&quot; gem to your Gemfile.
