I am sad.... PHP v5.4 on CentOS 7

With CentOS 7 having an EOL 2024 (2020 for full updates), that means I'm doomed to an outdated piwik for many years, a piwik that won't offer the latest features possible.

I wish the developers would reconsider their decision to not support older PHP versions, especially when many of us can't move to PHP 7 for various reasons. In addition, my experience shows that it is easy to support PHP 5.4 since most applications rarely use PHP 7-specific code, or they can easily offer a compatibility layer.

I'd appreciate your thoughts.

Thank you.
