Whenever D is making a marketing push you get newbies in the 
forums complaining about lacking libraries, lacking IDE, lacking 
tooling. Then they leave, most likely with a bad impression, 
because they had higher expectations.

If people believe that D is as popular as Swift, which is the 
current TIOBE ranking, they also expect the eco system of Swift. 
Which D cannot deliver.

Yes, I am pessimistic when it comes to FUD, it leads to 
resentment.

What the D community needs is users with realistic expectations 
and goals.
