At work we have a lot of old monolithic OOP PHP code. Dependency injection has been the new way to do things since before I started and it's basically never used anywhere.

I assume most people just find it easier to create a new class instance where it's needed.

I've never really seen a case where I think, "dependency injection would be amazing here" I assume there is a case otherwise it wouldn't exist.

As a fellow PHP dev (working in laminas specifically) DI actually is fucking awful, there's a distinction between a service factory pattern and this thing called DI which is similar to a service factory pattern but uses reflection based type sniffing to guess at which service you want where. I'd considered making a reference to it but PHP developers are few and far between these days.
