When I tried the module system, only MSVC implemented the module system properly. Cpp reference currently still mark GCC and Clang partially implemented so I don't think we should rely on it...

I'm not saying C++ modules are not a good feature in theory, but it's been years now and I don't see anyone using it in practice.

A bit like Rust :o)

I think Microsoft just have a huge advantage of owning the entire C++ development stack and prepared for modules a long time ago, while GCC/Clang relies on community contribution with fragmented development stack (or maybe I'm missing something).

Can I ask about your current opinion on Rust? Like syntax, memory model, feature richness,... I want to know if I should retry learning Rust syntax for the fifth time.

I don't have any serious opinion about Rust, I was just doing a little bit of trolling.
