You can't compare general "interest" to "usefulness in web dev". Same with stats, you cant use these stats to argue for either language. Example, most websites use php probably bacause of the "old" trend of Wordpress going around in 2010s where everybody could make their own website. Or the trend of React that started to "change" the web, even though many frameworks followed and did it better, most people still use React. I personally prefer a node backend but still work with python and php in backends for work. Buuut, here take my stats that clearly shows most backends still depend on php. (Yeah I know im a bit late to the party 😂)
