PHP is doing great! I like the direction it is going in. PHP 7.4 also introduced nice features to improve static typing. The FFI is pretty cool too. You also get free performance improvements while remaining mostly backward compatible. It is trying very hard to stay relevant and I believe it is succeeding.

And dont forget about preloading - an OPCache improvement, also available from 7.4.
