Are web servers that serve real HTML responses still a thing? Honest question. I thought JSON+client side rendering were the default by now.
You're a couple years behind the SSR craze. We're back to what they were doing with PHP in the 00s except it's now done with Next, Nuxt etc.
Give it a year or two and we will be back to PHP. A lot of people are seeing the massive changes PHP has done and realizing it's just not as bad as it used to be. 7.x was a huge change, and 8.x is also doing great things. And so no one rages about my opinions, there's some sarcasm about "going back to PHP". Obviously the industry will stick to JS/TS for the most part.
PHP has been “not bad” for a decade. The problem is that it isn’t good and I can’t think of a reason to choose it for a new project when there are so many better, established languages.
