- dgb23 4y agoThat's true but Nodejs hosting slowly puts out more and more competition that is even free or similarly cheap. This is still one area where PHP shines (indirectly). The other one is legacy/ecosystem. There are still quite a few hairy things implemented in PHP that the JS ecosystem misses and that you cannot possibly amortize in a single, typical web project.
