← Back to context Comment by devops000 2 days ago I don’t believe that 78% of websites run on PHP 7 comments devops000 Reply smallerfish 2 days ago They're counting wordpress, drupal, various forums, etc. They make up a huge percentage of custom sites.If you're talking only custom built stacks, the percentage is definitely lower, but probably still surprisingly high. phplovesong 2 days ago Its a "fact" PHP devs love. The truth is 95% of PHP is not actaully PHP, bit wordpress/drupal and the other cms's.Its click, drag, click drag and the underlying tech has zero importance really. kylecazar 2 days ago 78% of websites where it can be deduced from client side code what server side tech is used. W3tech published this statistic, and the whole community picked it up while ignoring that very important caveat.Not a very meaningful statistic. zoover2020 2 days ago Anyone who cafés about security would stay away from PHP. Certainly more than 22% of the web. askonomm 2 days ago Cargo-culting bs that you heard from somewhere and never bothered to fact check? Shame on you. user3939382 2 days ago Oh really? Why is that. Let's talk about globals from 2005. agrunyan 2 days ago It’s not 2005? How is this even an argument? Age-old opinions of PHP are do not reflect the modern state of PHP and its ecosystem.
