Which C++ compiler do you use and why?

I'm beginning to learn programming from this great app and started with the C++ tutorial. My plan was to create gradually bigger programs as exercises to test and consolidate my knowledge, but realized SoloLearn doesn't support that. After a quick search I installed TurboCC on my PC and discovered it's extremely outdated and probably not worth dealing with, the veterans opinions here confirmed that. So the question is: which compiler are you using to create C++ projects and what are it's advantages and disavantages? (Windows 10 but other platforms are ok too) TL DR; the title

I am using pretty much what the tutorial here suggests, Code::Blocks as my IDE combined with a GNU compiler, which is handy since when installing Code::Blocks, it additionally installs the compiler for you if chosen. That just worked out fine for me. I also tested Visual Studio, but I didn't like it, mainly because I seem to be too stupid to have it work properly. I never worked with anything else, so I can't give upsides and downsides, but based on my experience, Code::Blocks should do the trick.

Thanks! Somehow the code::blocks hint got lost in my memory, I'll start using it from now..
