I remember inheriting a RoR v2 based project. Ended up virtualizing the entire server to migrate the damn thing as it was a big pile of dependency mess to port to a newer server stack. On a similar situation with a PHP 4 based codebase, adapting it to work on PHP 5.6 was a few hours work. Done. No other language can beat that. And thanks to a newer (and more open minded) generation of developers, PHP has a long way to go. The launch of the PHP Foundation by Jetbrains, Automattic and others - https://blog.jetbrains.com/phpstorm/2021/11/the-php-foundati... - is also a step towards a better future for PHP.
