My gripe with C++ is that you need to know so many things to build even the most basic abstractions. When writing a custom data structure you always end up with having headaches about the specifics of std::iterators and rvalue references and all that jazz rather than focusing on the actual algorithm. There’s a reason why people want to go back to Orthodox C++ (using C++ as C with a few extra features)
