PHP is not the language it used to be at all. PHP8 with its new JIT engine "Tracing JIT" is becoming a real contender beating go and nodeJS in some cases and being beaten in others. The syntax has changed also to be pretty much component based. Do I like PHP syntax? not really, but it is becoming more similar to other languages like C# or typescript with its own PHP "touch". There's nothing to be ashamed these days to say one is a PHP developer. Specially version 8.
