The figures on that page don’t mean that 83% of developers use PHP... Just that some things written in PHP are very popular. I’m sure that most of that figure is packages like WordPress.

Most of the Internet (5 out of 6 websites) is powered by PHP. This is true despite people saying "don't use PHP".

I didn't imply that 83% of developers use PHP. I'm sorry if anyone read it that way. I'm zeroed-in on the "what powers the Internet" statistic.
