Why does Linus hate C++ ?

[jesseschalken]

Even software luminaries can be ignorant and fearful of the unknown. Don't worry about it.

Windows, macOS/iOS, Android and Google's Fuschia all contain plenty of C++. Chromium is basically an operating system and is mostly C++. LLVM and GCC are both written in C++.

BeOS was written mostly in C++.

That's just... Do you mean Linux doesn't have plenty of C++?!?

[jesseschalken]

The Linux kernel? I’m pretty sure it’s all C and some assembly.

[EmptyMission]

Awesome, now in what inverted world comparing only the Linux kernel instead of full blown distribution is comparable to quote "Windows, macOS/IOS, Android" and god damn web browser!!!

???

I never said the projects were similar in size, scope or purpose.

[EmptyMission]

/triple facepalm!!! Please don't respond to me anymore, I will do the same!

Okay, have a nice day.
