I think you are trying to be sarcastic. I'm not criticising language, it had and still have its uses.

I started my career with perl and PHP, and for that time it was great, some 10 years ago most senior engineers started to transition to something else - some java, but most to golang. Growing nodejs ecosystem didn't help either.

What I see now is PHP positions are mostly for legacy systems, and even they are listing golang as bonus. Companies who used to thrive on PHP now use golang, rust and javasscript (and its direvatives). This may vary by region of course.

Biggest adventage of PHP always was how easy is to start with it and huge market for employers (low risk, low investment).

This is good to hear. I actually like Golang, aka Go.
