It’s such an outdated meme to shit on PHP. PHP 8.3 is absolutely nothing like PHP < 5. It’s become a full-fledged, performant and secure language. I’ve been coding PHP since 2005, and I’ve seen it grow and become incredibly capable. Sure I do recognise that other languages are still more “popular” and respected, and as such I’ve been focusing more and more on Node/Typescript in recent years, but PHP isn’t going anywhere. And its package ecosystem is so much more reliable and stable than say NPM.
