It is. They need to move to a long running application base and they are not doing it.

PHP 8 is actually really good. Think last time I was angry at PHP was pre 7.4 PHP

I don’t see why I should care. In 2001, your choices for backend webdev were basically PHP, Perl, Python, or Java. Now we have a dozen languages competing for the top spot. Elixir is becoming a personal favorite, but I don’t see why I should bother with PHP if I don’t already have a legacy platform in it.

Have they stopped using every naming convention there is (including some from other planets) in their function names?
