Go's standard library is quite far beyond C and C++ in terms of features. Neither C nor C++ as far as I know have a JSON parser, CSV parser, language parser (Go for Go, but C for C, C++ for C++), web server, crypto libraries, and so on.
Though C++ and Java both probably have more container/algorithm libraries builtin than Go does.

- tialaramex 5y agoWho has complained that the C standard library is bloated? In C++ the standard library has several entire features that are regrettable and so just take up space (e.g. regex, yes regular expressions are useful, no the standard library implementation isn't what you want), as well as places where they kept thinking of new better ideas and now there's a trail of old busted stuff you shouldn't use in new projects. So of course people are going to say that's bloated, it is.
