PHP artisan tinker not working
Whenever I type php artisan tinker into my terminal, it opens up the area for it, however, whenever I type any command into it and press Enter, it just exits tinker without doing anything. This happens when I open it in sudo mod as well, I also tried other terminal apps, didn't work. I use ZShell and MacBook Air 2012.
Any ideas why?

Oh, thanks! I use PHP 7.3.5, so it seems to be the issue

By the way, from the thread I looked up, this worked for me. Add this code to ~/.config/psysh/config.php:
<?php
return [
'usePcntl' => false,
];
However, I hope this issue will be resolved asap, it's already been several months and nothing?

It's a tinker issue, not laravel. Laravel just uses the tinker package. Yes, I'm surprised Tinker doesn't check the version of php being used and add that flag automatically.

I know it's not a Laravel issue, it just still baffles me :( Hopefully soon.

I am sure that it's a tinker problem. Because tinker is only package of Laravel.
