D is such a sad case of how a good technical product can fail due to poor leadership and decision making. A language is more than just a compiler, it's also an ecosystem and a community. D's community is actually very welcoming but man, watch some of the DConf videos and Q&As on Youtube and it's cringe seeing key leaders talking down to people, or dismissing people's concerns, or just have this ego about themselves like they know what's best and everyone should shutup and just go along with them.
Anyhow, D went from a language that I remember back in 2015 was often promoted on places like reddit and here as a fresh alternative to C++ that was constantly evolving, to nowadays you rarely hear anything about it at all. I think even Andrei Alexandrescu has given up on it.
Good luck to these guys on trying to bring life back to it, but frankly I think at this point most people have given up and moved on to alternatives like Rust, Nim, Zig, etc...
