Unfortunately also the ethernet connection wasn’t detected. I solved using my phone in USB tethering

Right. I solved using the connection of my phone

Amazing. It worked, thanks a lot

Actually, also the ethernet connection does not work :/

Yes, I didn’t research this extensively… it was more of a hunch. :D Yes, certainly, I simply thought that if you minimize phone usage, it would result in a longer battery life and fewer charging cycles, which in turn would reduce CO2 emissions… but I admit it’s a bit of a stretch. :D

At the end I wrote my own little “search engine” to do that. Still buggy and not super fast, but it does what I need and I can now navigate also wit a bad connection https://blaze.cyclic.app

Nice. It’s not exactly what I had in mind, though. Thanks for sharing.

Nowadays is only a matter of community and resources related to the language that one can find online. Php lost popularity and gained this image as a bad language, this brings a lot of devs to not use Php without a real factual reason. Is just not cool or they feel ashamed to tell that they work with Php.

If a dev works with typescript is more easy to find a lot of cool and pleasing resources, videos, articles. With php, for the reasons explained above, the stuff you can find it does not feel so cool as other mainstream languages. And here the game start over, for this reason less people use it and so on. This give to the entire php ecosystem a kind of “old” feeling and a lot of young devs just don’t like it.

But rarely there are real reasons. With php 8 for sure there are not a lot of reasons to blame the language to be a bad language.

Until a couple of years ago I used to work with the last versions of php and I actually never felt the urges to redactor everything in some other language.

I am sure that php has limits, but in the same way as all other languages have their limits: they are just tools at the end.

Stop blaming php. Blame WordPress instead! :D

But I would ask he opposite question: can somebody make an argument to not use php? From a dev point of view.

This time I feel some optimism, it looks like the fediverse have a chance
