My solution to C4 has been to play some Karo-Slavy thing with ...c6 and ...d5, works for me :D
Did someone a super grandmaster dominate with C4 recently
Sort:
Usually transposes to any 1. d4 opening, as well as some 1. e4 ones.

Which e4 ones? Seems always to go to d4 for me

GM Normund Mizies plays like this with White:
1.c4 c6 2.e4 (Caro-Kann,Steiner-Variation)
1.c4 e6 2.e4 d5 (leads to a French Exchange Variation)

Because I've been finding lost of people using that opening as white and I've lost a few games as black against it (because I have no idea how to play against it as black).
Now I have to go study it. Lol.
Usually it's good to transpose to your 1.d4-defense. If that's not possible, you should look at 1...c5 or 1...e5.
I play 1c4 a lot. NBKXX has it right.
Dang! I need to learn the Caro-Kann then.
It's a pretty explosive opening.
Learning the Caro-Kann seems worthwhile

I believe Karpov was noting just the other day that the Karo-Slavy thing is super dangerous in the right hands.

It's just a game stop cursing and when losing
