CodeIgniter isn't specifically used, and it's a bit disheartening that we struggle to find someone come and work with us just because allegedly 7 out of 10 PHP developers we'll find only want to work with Laravel.

WordPress... looks like they have their own issues right now with the whole Gutenberg change.
Not being flexible enough to use another framework just means those 7 out of 10 devs lack true experience. The ability to use Laravel is important if you're a dev, but it's a shame if it's the only tool in your toolbox. I had 3 years of PHP experience before I even started using frameworks. I think a lot of "Junior Developers" go straight to a framework and think they know everything they need. Nevermind having actual knowledge of PHP.
What WordPress is doing really sucks. I keep hoping maybe someday they wake up and understand they made a huge mistake and abandon Gutenberg. Gutenberg seems like a fiasco on the horizon. Last time I looked Gutenberg had over 900 issues on github ... but somehow we are supposed to start using this crap. Doesn't make sense.
