You would be very pleasantly surprised at how programming in C+ is, today, vs. pre-C++11. With C++20, the language has got even nicer to use.

I remember really enjoying C++ circa 2012, but I really hated scripting my own build tooling via CMake or manually wrangling dependencies. This was the stuff that pushed me out of C++. Fortunately, Go had just hit 1.0 and it fixed many of the problems out of the gate, and I didn’t really need the performance that C++ offered.

Even CMake has got less annoying.

It had nowhere to go but up! (: Jokes aside, I’m glad to hear it.
