Webmock was blocking me from making requests to social api
Solution
made development dependencies in the gemspec file to be in the group "test"; so that all development_dependency will not be loaded when running the server of the dummy app
I manually required and loaded dotenv in "development" environment because it would otherwise not be because i made it a development_dependency as well
