The execution model is definitely the biggest issue with PHP these days.

Although now that the PHP Foundation is officially supporting FrankenPHP maybe things will be evolving into a new paradigm.

But why pick PHP then? Why not use nodejs or similar where the language, application stack and the community is already in agreement on the execution model.

I don’t use php but it’s extremely popular around the world. There’s also Laravel which seems a lot more productive than anything in js for full stack dev.
