What are some alternatives?
Guzzle - Guzzle, an extensible PHP HTTP client
curl-impersonate-php - Curl-Impersonate-PHP is an implementation of the original project Curl-Impersonate, available at https://github.com/lwthiker/curl-impersonate, which introduces a specialized cURL build that can mimic the behavior of four major browsers. By using Curl-Impersonate-PHP, you can make HTTP requests from PHP using cURL but with headers and behavior that resemble Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Microsoft Edge.
Phi/Middleware
HTTPFul - A Chainable, REST Friendly, PHP HTTP Client. A sane alternative to cURL.
PHP VCR - Record your test suite's HTTP interactions and replay them during future test runs for fast, deterministic, accurate tests.
Buzz - PHP's lightweight HTTP client
zend-diactoros
HTTPlug - HTTPlug, the HTTP client abstraction for PHP
JCRequest - Another Guzzle wrapper
