Came here to say this. Absolutely insane.
Why is phpMyAdmin even still needed/wanted in 2026? It's not exactly user friendly for a developer, let alone an average Gov employee...

Knowing the govt sector, the developers probably got hired 20 years ago and enjoy their stable, chill, even if a bit low pay job. No need to do CV-Driven Development and chase any new trend if the site's running and they're not looking for a new position...
It's what you get, when you scrape the bottom of the barrel with the salaries you are willing to pay. Are you willing to take a 1/3 pay cut for no good reason? You are welcome to work in such positions.
Because most of the Wordpress shops only know how to work with PHPMyAdmin.
Clarify what is "used today" and what features phpmyadmin provided that are "no longer needed". Until then your comment is just a juvenile attack.
