What's new in PHP 8?
It seems every language has a group of people with an unrelenting urge to turn it into Java.

Really? What languages in particular? Even Java doesn't want to be Java anymore (see the "inspiration" it's taking from Kotlin and others in recent/next versions). PHP is the only language that seems to be chasing Java to me.

As long as weak typing is not abandoned, the Java-like language features are great.
I am really looking forward to generics in PHP.

Weak typing and generics, isn't that the worst of both worlds?
