Moving from Go to PHP Again

This may sound trivial but I dislike the aesthetics and ergonomics of typing PHP. In most dynamic languages user.name is 9 keystrokes, but in PHP $user->name is 13 keystrokes.

100% agree. The syntax of languages such as php, c++ and rust just look ugly af. The use of $ and :: piss me off the most
