There&#x27;s plenty of websites that don&#x27;t run on PHP though? StackOverflow runs on ASP .NET, Twitter ran on Rails at one point, now it&#x27;s partially a mix of things but some of it is in Scala I suppose, plenty of major sites don&#x27;t run off of PHP. PHP isn&#x27;t impossible to use or anything, but it&#x27;s not the only solution. Everyone should use whatever they&#x27;re comfortable using. Edit: So long as what they&#x27;re comfortable using does the job correctly and effectively.
