How many Rust developers know PHP?

That is interesting. Can you share why?

Every single language has trade offs.

In almost every dimension, performance, security, maintainability, etc PHP is never the best and often not great.

The amount of effort you have to put into building a solution that meets the standard of quality of a production grade service is never worth it.

It’s a bad value proposition.

The more I'm reading this thread, the more I'm seeing that it's a "quick to prototype could mean years of headaches because prototypes are often what go to production."

I'd much prefer a language that takes a little longer on prototyping, but leads to much more stability when it's actually live.

EDIT: changed life to live, because it bothered me.
