Not yet AFAIK, but unlike the 'inbetween' versions since C99, C23 actually has a number of really useful features, so I expect that a couple of projects will start using C23 features. The main problem is as always MSVC, but then maybe its time to ditch MSVC support since Microsoft also seems to have abandondend it (not just the C compiler, but also the C++ compiler isn't seeing lots of updates since everybody working on Visual Studio seems to have been reassigned to work in the AI salt mines).

And Rust, as the official system programming language for Azure.

However there are several C++23 goodies on latest VC++, finally.

Also lets not forget Apple and Google no longer are that invested into clang, rather LLVM.

It is up for others to bring clang up to date regarding ISO.
