Does anyone use Code::Blocks? I like it

    I used it forever ago and my biggest problem is that the old paradigm of tying the build system and project management together into a GUI-centric serialized form is simply no longer preferable. It was phenomenal in the simpler times- I was a user of Visual C++ 6 as a kid, but its an aging concept now. Not I highly enjoy CMake or god forbid autotools, but I think Code::Blocks is a bit in the past. I really like what Qt was doing with QBS and Qt Creator, but sadly I think things are going in a weird direction for them nowadays. Now if I'm coding C or C++ I tend to do plain old GNU Make and VS Code or Sublime or even vim. It's a little more to learn, but the simplicity and versitility pays dividends.

    ... Also, w.r.t. Code::Blocks, I find ctags insufficient anymore. I hope it has more advanced auto complete nowadays.
