It's really not very rich and up-to-date, in my opinion. In my experience, the vast majority of oss PHP projects started a decade ago, and they all keep certain back-compat, so they run with the drag of old paradigms. Actual new contribution to the ecosystem seems almost impossible to find, and there's a lot of areas that simply aren't great.

E.g try to find a sane way to work with PostgreSQL json,jsonb columns in a safe way in php. There's no even halfway decent solution. Half-supported, roll-your-own in doctrine is the best you can get
