The feature flags is the only new language feature, so that's the headline.
More important for people actually using it is that we now offer VERY simple cross compilation to MacOS. Cross compilation to MacOS has existed for a long time, but this is the first release where the compiler can just get all the things you need out of the box automatically.
I have never used C3 and probably won't for a while but honestly besides very minor nitpicks I seem to agree and like every knew change you introduce to the language. Keep it up :)
I'm continually impressed with C3, especially considering the high degree of total-interop with C the author has imposed on the language. After coding in zig/odin/C3 a bunch I'm much more bullish on these modern "not memory safe but we give you better tools" languages, although I do feel like this will hold them back in the grand scheme of things.
I've said it before and I'll say it again; C3 is the language that's easiest for me personally to read and one I really hope takes off.
The more I read about c3, the more tempted I get using it.
