To be honest, it's a pattern I see under every PHP thread:

(Neutral) PHP news -> PHP bad -> PHP not bad

Even if people didn't actually say "PHP bad"

I use PHP for my backend work. I am not an outstanding PHProgrammer, because, quite frankly, I don't like the language, but I'm good enough to write fairly robust, secure, and performant backends.

I just hold my nose, write my backend, then get back to my frontend, as soon as possible.
