Hey! It's an RFC for Google's new PHP Client Libraries! A penny for your thoughts, #PHP community?

For any users of the Firebase/JWT-PHP library for #PHP, we are cutting a major version this week, and I have a question regarding a potential major change:
How important is it for your decoded payloads to be arrays instead of stdClass?

Announcing PHP for Google Cloud Functions!
We tried our very best to bring #PHP to Cloud Functions in an intuitive and idiomatic way. We really hope you like it!

Removed bunch of boilerplate and was fun to finally use Flows for streaming APIs. Great work @bshaffer and everyone involved! Enjoyed digging into the internals. Looking forward to proper Kotlin support in Protobuf to not deal with builders 😅
I would love to get feedback from the #PHP community on whether it's a good idea to support both PHP 8.0 named parameters and options arrays for PHP 7.4 and below?

Something I am very proud to have been a part of! Congrats everyone.
