Recently I got fed up with C++ for good and have no interest in touching it anymore. There's just a sheer amount of complexity and lack of free (as in beer) tooling that has driven me mad these past years until I finally gave up last month. Then I checked D and I wanted to try it, but couldn't get a Rider/IntellliJ (can't recall) plugin to work, so I also marked it as lack of tooling; I also couldn't find many code examples, either on github or in communities which weren't old-ass forums. I finally decided to go back to the sanest language I've used, which is C#. With little effort I could get back to writing code instead of endless yak shaving for simple things. For these kind of projects I'm working, a GC isn't the issue, so that didn't bother me. It feels like asking for modern class-based with c-like-syntax and a good std lib in a language is too much... It's sad that C++ "won" the race being such a cumbersome language with slow compile times and a outdated mindset.
