I frankly wish we'd stop developing C++. It's so hard to keep track of all the new unnecessary toys they're adding to it. I thought I knew C++ until I read some recent C++ code. That's how bad it is.

Meanwhile C++ build system is an abomination. Header files should be unnecessary.

You don't have to keep up with or use any of the new features. I still pay my bills writing C++98 and have no desire to use a higher version.
