I don’t know if it’s due to over-exposure to programming memes but I certainly believed that no one was starting new PHP projects in 2023 (or 2020, or 2018, or 2012…). I was under the impression we only still discussed it at all because WordPress is still around.
Would a PHP evangelist like to disabuse me of my notions and make an argument for using PHP for projects such as Kbin in this day and age?
more so surprised that it wasn’t written in {insert favourite language here}
that being said I agree that PHP isn’t anything like it used to be.
And here I am, just waiting on the next red jersey app to be written in Java so I can actually contribute code 🥲
