Why is C++...

...so bad? Why does it have such a bad reputation?

I'm an experienced C++ programmer and, while the language has warts, I can't understand the reason for the enormous amount of criticism against the language.

I'd like to hear the honest opinions of /prog/rammers in this regard.

That's because it is, and if you cbf, which most people can't, get a fucking lib, like I said.

"Oh god C++ is so complex!" That's because it has all the features you will ever need, and then some.

As for that site that points out all of the flaws in C++, big fucking deal. Every programming language has its flaws, it's not like your shitty 20 year old irrelevant language is going to have less flaws in usability than C++ has.

People who aren't willing to take the time to learn/understand functionality of such a versatile, mainstream programming language will never be good programmers, plain and simple.
