As already posted in another thread for this GP, I completely disagree with the overall sentiment of this whole discussion that is throwing (modern) C++ (i.e., C++11 ff.) into the same bucket with (any version of) C.
What I can agree to, however, is that C should be your first choice if (a) you have to, or (b) because you like it and probably (c) because you are several times more likely to find a job if you know C as opposed to Rust or Go (unless living in very specific areas of this world - maybe...?). And then go learn Rust/Go/..., anyways :-).
