does anyone know if it's worth learning php? i know that backend development is often done with other things these days but i've been interested in php on account of my 2000s programming interests and like... you know... a lot of older websites are still built on php, it's not like it's defunct or unused as a language. but i'm getting mixed signals on whether it's worth funneling my energy into that or just starting with backend JS or python or something (this is a completely new programming thing for me, i have not previously worked with backend stuff. i literally just wrapped my brain more or less around javascript promises to fetch resources and i still don't have much experience with them, much less more complex requests and actually posting data to a server)
