So don't use it? These "Why X Sucks" posts mostly seem like clickbait rants an author writes when they have a frustrating programming day. C++ is a huge language used all over the place, it's been here awhile, its pitfalls and warts are known, it can be cumbersome to write, but it's fast and there are a huge number of quality libraries for it. It's hard to write in. We know. Use it where it makes sense, use something else where it doesn't. If you want native code with fast speed and a nice development environment, give Rust a try if you haven't already.
