I’m about to start learning C++
printf has some pretty serious security implications. When I want more complicated text printing options than what is easy or terse in iostream then I use the tinyformat library.

The Year is 2022 and the Standard is C++20; what is your preferred way to do Text I/O?
The usual way I do I/O is via combining C++ stringstremas with either tinyformat or via an implementation of p0117 "variadic to_[basic_]string, depending on the particular need.

[Belay the C++] Yet another reason to not use printf (or write C code in general)
Haven't been able to make it work with MSVC 2012 (the earliest Windows-side compiler I need to support). I myself use tinyformat instead.

Is there a real benefit to using cout as opposed to printf that offsets the extra work in formatting?
However, not all is lost. While there are libraries like {fmt} I don't pay attention to them because they are far away into The Future and unusable with my requirements (C++03 support at the earliest, work reasons). Most newfangled libs I've seen are intended for Compilers of the Future, for C++20/C++23 and the like, and with that among other reasons are not generic enough for me. Instead I just use tinyformat that lays on top of both and bridges them, not to mention the biggest sell that is rrtaining the POSIX style printf notation (why didn't {fmt} go with that is still a mystery to me).
What are some alternatives?
