I used to like Laravel, but I started using it well before PHP 7.0 so I developed a large webapp using shitty practices, abuse of strings, and other unmaintainable shenanigans and I'm still dealing with the consequences.
I realize that's mainly on me, and I'm not real familiar with PHP's newer features since I started doing more .net projects, but I don't want to go back to anything that doesn't have a compiler.
Edit: I just remembered the thing that pissed me off most about Laravel: Trying to upgrade major versions was awful. "We renamed this function for no real reason." "We switched the order of the parameters in that function because fuck you." "We removed support for this package which is was a dependency for some of your other Composer packages. Have fun in dependency hell."
