I had to use it for a c++ project and it was one of the biggest waste of time and frustrating moments of my computing career, there were constant breakages due to glibc mismatches, Nvidia drivers and whatnot, and getting an host IDE to have semantic understanding of the paths , etc... necessary for normal completions and stuff was nigh impossible.

Yeah but other than conan it's one of the few things where you can get a sort of "project package manager" experience like npm with C++. It's not nearly as user friendly as what they have for python or nodejs.
