It's still not really wrong though. The C standard is just the minimal common feature set guaranteed by different C compilers, and even then there are significant differences between how those compilers implement the standard (e.g. the new C23 auto behaves differently between gcc and clang - and that's fully sanctioned by the C standard).
The actually interesting stuff happens outside the standard in vendor-specific language extensions (like the clang extended vector extension).
Off topic but if you're the author of sokol, I'm so thankful because it led to my re-learning the C language in the most enjoyable way. Started to learn Zig these days and I see you're active in the community too. Not sure if it's just me but I feel like there's a renaissance of old-school C, the language but more the mentality of minimalism in computing that Zig also embodies.

Yes it's a me :D Thanks for the kind words. And yeah, Zig is pretty cool too.
