It is wise because this dichotomy won't last forever. GCC will slowly die (because corporations seems to hate GPL and LLVM is their child) and everyone will need to migrate to LLVM sooner or later.
- ndiddy 4y agoIronically, while LLVM lives on, Clang is slowly dying and is failing to compete with GCC. Clang's C++20 support lags behind GCC because both of its major corporate sponsors, Google and Apple, have seemingly moved on (after failing to get the ABI changed, Google went over to working on Carbon, and Apple doesn't care as long as the C++ support is good enough to compile LLVM and the C++14 subset required for Metal's shading language). All the other vendors who take advantage of Clang's permissive licensing seem unwilling to upstream improved C++ support.
