gollark: There are lots of *attempts* to make "C but newer", but they're not as ubiquitous because C is, well, old and comparatively simple.
gollark: It's a newer idea, and a nice one which lots of languages now *have*.
gollark: Yes.
gollark: Also, they make you maintain `.c` and `.h` files instead of just one which is annoying.
gollark: They're not namespaced unless you just prefix all your symbols with something, which is ugly, and I've heard they're not very good for compilers.
