Gave up Godaddy recently, after 10 years. Overpriced ssl, old php version and no sign for upgrades and improvements.

If you are hosting a PHP website, then just host it yourself. You can get cheaper and better hosting from one of the "economy" clouds like DigitalOcean or Linode, and nowadays TLS certs can be automated for free with LetsEncrypt. GoDaddy as a registrar is fine but the rest of its services are completely unnecessary today.
