Oh, my comment was more that compiling C/C++ apps on any platform is shit. Windows may be the worst to compile on, but Linux is only marginally better.
Okay that’s fair. I fricked around with some C++ numerics BLAS header library (I think it was Eigen) on Linux before that was complicated and annoying too. The ARM Fast Models simulator was also a pain. Maybe I just don’t like C++ development now that I think about it.

“Just run make install”

Hm. I’ve always found it harder to compile stuff on Windows.

Rust is amazing though.

I’m starting to think the platforms aren’t the problem.

C mostly worked okay for me though.
Gentoo is the best platform for this.
I keep seeing complaints from non JavaScript developers about their IDE not handling millions of files in a folder properly
