I went ahead and started up a XAMPP install on my Windows machine for version v.1.5.8 and as I was about to install it, I was told that version 8.3 of PHP is not "suitable" even though it is greater than 8.1? Should I go ahead and force downgrade the PHP to 8.2 instead?

I understand that PHP 8.3 just came out (literally yesterday). But wanted to know how I should proceed.
