I am not the only one, this is a common discussion point on C++ communities.

Clang first should spend it's resources catching up with C++20, instead of spending them on C++23. The standard is yet to be fully finished.

Who exactly cares about C++20? Most (mis)features of the “standard” won’t be used for years anyway, until the codegen stabilizes and performance impact will be known. Most of people in these communities never got a dollar for a line of C++, and people who did rarely express their opinion (but you can still find it online if you try)
It seems pretty obvious to me that you never lived through the bad old days when compilers all did whatever they wanted.

Tell me again how much you care about C++20 when a library with a feature you want uses it but your toolchain doesn't support it.
