I happen to agree, so bring on the downvotes Some of the PHP criticism is valid, and most of it is valid if we're talking about pre-composer PHP. But with composer, namespaces and traits, PHP can be a lot of fun. Sure, there's no real concurrency support, but so far I'm able to live with that. It's also weakly typed, but there's a LOT of web apps that don't need strong typing. The documentation is a good starting point, but some of the warts will come out in edge cases. The only thing I'm mad about is needle/haystack. I also wish string and array slicing were as easy as they are in python
