I am with you all the way. For a high level programming language it’s incredible how close to C it is at times AND how many footguns the entire language has. And you always hear the “a poor craftsman blames his tools” analogy when someone says PHP bad. But PHP is a hammer that’ll blow your arm clean off when you hit a nail at a slightly off angle. There is no defending it, and it should have been replaced with better languages several times over. Ok I need to stop myself now I can rant about this language for hours

PHP is the best web language, not because it’s a good language, but because the other are worst

I have no idea how anyone who ever used it for anything actually useful can be defending it
