   "The only thing I don't like about Pixelfed is that it is written in PHP."

   Most users don't care about what language is used to serve html.

   Most developers target a language they are most efficient with.

   We're the 2nd most active fediverse server, hosted on a VPS.

   With PHP. 💅

     @dansup 100%!
     Bad code can be written in any language ... (like I can take bad photos with ANY camera)

     As a user, I care about usabaility and stability. Keep up the good work mate!

     @dansup That if PHP is no longer used, that if it is obsolete, blah blah blah.

     PHP is still very much alive, and in my work I still develop in PHP, only once I made a web with VUE, and it was connected to an API, guess what language it was made with.

     @dansup As someone who has been developing with PHP for more than 20 years, this calls for my favorite grumpy old man quote.
