Honestly I haven't actually used it since C++14 was new, but it's a common complaint IME that each 'edition' (as Rust would call it, I don't know remember the term, standard?) adds too much, there's too many ways of doing things, variations of pointers, boost, and so on.
I think a lot of people wish it had stayed at say C++7, a mature C superset, but that's enough now. I probably should have said 'I understand' rather than 'I agree' - I don't feel strongly, I don't use either of them.
- loxias 3y agoOhhh, I get what you mean now, thank you! I understand (and mildly disagree). :) Yeah, C++ is a living language, I can respectfully see that bothering some people. I viewed c++98->c++11 as essentially a new language with c++14 and c++17 being "bug fixes" for the "new language" that is c++11. But certainly, it can require more learning about every decade now.
