Thanks, I haven't written PHP 5.6 code in years. Are you still using it?
Yep. PHP 5.6 is still used in many production environments.
You really need to switch ASAP, that version had an end of life over three years ago. There are currently 0,5% using that version according to packagist. imdbphp are compatible with PHP 8.0.
It does say in the readme we support 5.6 to be fair. I used to test it on travis then they dropped support for it .. then travis dropped support for free builds so only really testing 7.4 at the moment with a github action.

As I said. It's still used in many production environments. There are also some unix/linux derivates who are still provide updates for php 5.6 packages. So please stop any religious topic spamming and don't tell me what I have to use. Thanks.
Readme states php 5.6 is still supported, then this software should be work with that version. Or just update your readme.

I'm not question the legitimacy of this PR, it's up to specification of the project.

I'm not trying to be an asshole about it, just said it ones... you are free to use enterprise Linux if you like. Haven't come across any supported version of Linux that are still using PHP 5.6 as of late, but it appears Red Hat 7 are one, if you use their extended support channel. (stopped using Red Hat / CentOS around 2015 due to software requirements changes e.g. PHP)
PHP are moving fast and getting a lot new features that makes it more of a type safe language. If you are into that sort of things. It's quite a leap upgrading an old program if you want to utilize all the features it offerts. You can still create quick and dirty applications that can run on multiple versions.

I Agree with that!
Latest update breaks PHP >= 5.6 support.
