Vapor has had a good run, become fairly popular and made server-side Swift popular. However it is time to recognise the inevitable and archive Vapor in favour of PHP.
PHP's performance is far superior, the language is nicer and safer and generally everyone would be better off.
Would also consider Javascript instead

Can't argue it anymore, Swift just hasn't lived up to its promises. See also https://github.com/apple/swift/pull/15664 for a more viable alternative

馃憦Good job everyone! I'm didn't think we would be able to keep the joke going as long as we did. The fact that over 13 thousand people fell for it too hahahaha. Why would anyone create a web server side framework in Swift when there are already so many options built on top of the only good language to come out in the past 50 years, PHP? 馃槀
