Was anyone else surprised to see Kbin being written in PHP? (lemmy.sdf.org)

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?

@WatTyler No really. I have seen that PhP developers are moving to other languages, but at the same time I have been involved in new projects using it (I'm not a PhP developer).
