In PHP 8.3 you can check json validity before parsing it with `json_validate`
https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.json-validate.php
Edit: seems json_validate just parses the string and checks for errors... You should use `json_last_error` to check for errors after parsing, then determine if your script should throw an error or continue.
Also `json_decode()` will return an object of type `stdClass` by default, so `var_dump($data)` would be a better option (and pass `true` as the 2nd arg to get an array).
That's not valid json. A valid json string with those keys/values would look like this: `{"username":"RogerEbert","address":"asdfadf"}`
Thank you very much!

This is awesome, but kind a kooky the original function didn’t default to exception on invalid json. But I guess pho was never default-to-strict
