Re:PHP 8.1.0 by makeitdouble on Thursday November 25, 2021 @05:48PM (#29345742)
When working on PHP only I didn’t care at all for the quirks or missing features. When going back and forth with other languages, PHP getting better becomes a huge quality of life improvement, the mental load we need to keep gets much lower.

PHP has always been a powerful language where the burden of making it work properly 250% relies on the dev. Stuff like enums should significantly reduce that ratio, it’s a big deal I think.

On the debugging part, I found something like ruby’s pry to be the easiest and fastest option. I wish PHP had something similar.
