It’s exhausting seeing these kinds of discussions. The only people who think PHP is dying is those who don’t use it. Besides the languages quirks, it’s incredibly productive and has a huge community of well engineered libraries for almost all mundane tasks. Theres great testing tools and general quality tool alike PHPStan. There’s an enormous pool of talent to hire from.
I code mostly in node nowadays, not through choice but due to the language snobbery I encountered during the last few years. It’s a shame. I find myself far more productive in the synchronous model than trying to bend my mind backwards with closures and async issues in the node world.
