"IMHO, both C++ and Rust feel too much like puzzle solving ("how do I solve this problem in C++" or "how do I solve this problem in Rust?"), when writing C code, the programming language disappears and it simply becomes "how do I solve this problem?")."

This statement very much resonates with me. It's honestly one of the things I like about C. Although it's not perfectly like this for me all the time. For example string manipulation is not great.

An other aspect I like about C is there is not a plethora ways of doing the same thing which I have found always made it more readable than rust and C++.
