I feel many of the C++ criticisms I read have to do with the older standards (98/03). C++11/14 is a very major upgrade to C++. C++ certainly still has its pitfalls, but things have gotten much better. It honestly feels like a new language to me.
- sillysaurus3 12y agoC++11/14 can't be used without upgrading your compilers. Go and Rust use standard toolchains. Go is also crossplatform, whereas gcc/clang don't like working on Windows, and Microsoft doesn't like implementing the full C++11/14 specs without waiting years after the open source community has already been using the full specs. This results in fragmentation.
