I'd argue that it still can be used for low-level programming (ie bare metal Arduino stuff) so it's more like C. One thing I hate about C was the memory managem

I'd argue that it still can be used for low-level programming (ie bare metal Arduino stuff) so it's more like C. One thing I hate about C was the memory management, and I had segfaults all over the place (but that may be more due to my pathetic C skills than anything else imo).
When I said "It's like C, but not C" I meant that it can be used for the same applications as C but it doesn't have most of the shortcomings of C itself.
