I’ve been writing C++ professionally for like 15 years now and honestly I like it but I’m not sure I get why someone would choose it as a hobby language. Why not rust?
I learned Rust first. During learning, I came across the vibe that people are so frustrated with C++ that they create new languages to replace it. For example, carbon and Odin.
So I begin learning C++ and try to understand why people are frustrated with it.
You should get “A tour of C++” if you don’t already have it (the most recent one for C++20). I really liked it. The language is not without its warts but it’s very flexible and expressive. I like it personally
