Why is C often used over C++ in osdev
Because it's traditional to use C for freestanding stuff but C++ is as capable as C to be use for freestanding code. For example here is a bootloader written in hight level C++ https://github.com/skiftOS/skift/blob/main/src/loader/loader.cpp

SkiftOS: Simple, handmade operating system for the x86 platform
What touches me the most is how much I like the GUI applications look like [0][1]. As a person, who use GNOME Shell DE I really miss to see the titlebars condensed with the menu just like VSCode does. It was what I liked in the very last Unity DE and I happy to see this once again. I am also amazed how simple the TextEditor is [2][3] and how handy looks your libwidget components. Congratulations!

opuntiaOS: now boots on iDevices
Bringing support of Aarch64, opuntiaOS boots on iDevices with A7-A9 cpus. We use a custom implementation of pongoOS as a bootloader, so a jailbreak is required, please find more here. While the OS boots, we have a lot of hardware drivers to implement for seamless experience.
