I know many devs who do not want to waste their days reading/watching vids about whatever the latest fad to do X is. Node and ‘modern frontend’ suffers from that a lot; many people pick PHP because although it might not be the latest and greatest thing, it works, it is stable, it is fast and you can just buy a few years old book and create something that fulfills the business case. And there are many programmers available with serverside experience for PHP (sorry but frontend JS just is not the same as serverside, so it is common to see nightmare code running in Node that was clearly someone’s ‘but I know JS so I am backend ninja now!’). Personally, since .NET Core 2.1 (latency dropped and the performance is phenomenal on Linux), which is a pleasure to write for, deploy with and very stable, I do not look too much at other things.
