One of the best features of PHP is that you don't have to learn and unlearn new tech stacks every few years.

Another great PHP feature is that PHP is the framework, you don't really need any heavy 3rd party frameworks on top of it. Getting familiar with a couple of libraries to cover what's missing is usually enough for everything web development.

Agree you don't need a 3rd party framework on top of it, but Laravel has been a joy to use (though to be fair, I'm a big rails and phoenix fan, so I've been infected by prior art).

Laravel is great for when you know you're gonna onboard/offboard a bunch of developers over months/years, and you want them to feel right at home as fast as possible.

For more long-term business, I'd always recommend go "chosen libraries put together well" over "framework everyone knows", as the developer churn will be lower, and having more control over your design and architecture tends to be more important (and applicable) when people stick around for longer.
