  • Not being a hip new language is an advantage on my books, and on many others’. PHP has been battle-tested and was once (and in a way, still is) a pillar of the internet. Stability always trumps novelty. Rust wasn’t exactly created with the internet in mind, but PHP was, and it’s way easier to find PHP developers than it is to find Rust developers (last time I checked).

    Though the performance boost provided by Rust over PHP is not something to be ignored, though servers written in C or C++ have also been around for quite a while, and PHP still managed to trump many of them.
