It's not working well on PHP 7.4+, though. Plenty of issues with create_function being deprecated (then removed in PHP 8).
Heck, it's better to have it removed entirely, since at least I can substitute a replacement create_function() in for the original one, but in 7.4 I got so many warnings (thanks to calls in Subs-Template.php) that it was overwhelming.
Anyway, I'll fix these, but I don't know if anyone is still using Wedge, and thus would need the fix... I noticed you switched to Elk at one point Kian, was it due to that? You know, you could have written :-P (Ideally, on Discord at @Naolog, I'm still very much available there.)
(I see I got 9 PMs here... Oops! Probably from you :lol:)

I'm now on the latest Debian with the latest PHP version, PHP 8.4.
I figured you now had better things to do and did not want to bother you :)

Well, you really could bother to contact me. (C'est parce que tu me dois encore des sous hein, c'est ça ? :-P)
Currently I have a working version of Lestrades.com that runs PHP 8.x (on my beta server). It's really no big deal.
I effectively added @ in front of all strftime() calls (could have done it with a global search & replace, really.)
The rest was easy to fix, mostly.
I believe it's entirely PHP 8.4 compatible. But not the github version.
When PHP 9 gets released, we'll be able to simply replace strftime() with a custom version (it's already in my code, ready to be 'deployed' if the instruction suddenly disappears.)
To be honest, though, I was surprised by the amount of refactoring needed between PHP 7.0 and 8.4. I believe it's a lot more than between 5 and 7. Although they did skip version 6... And 7 lasted for a while!
