Maybe you havent't looked enough. I blog about D (basic stuff) at 
http://aberba.com/#blog. I wrote one for Opensource.com at 
https://opensource.com/article/17/5/d-open-source-software-development which received some positive feedback. There are other blog posts about D too.

We care about the existing features done right that D has. In my 
experience, people like D (syntax, features, CTFE, UFCS, modules, 
etc.)... the only thing missing is that "we have more language 
than [real world usage]" coined from what Andre said at DConf.

D is way better and addictive than how I found it in 2014. The 
language and ecosystem keeps getting richer. I can't enjoy coding 
in any other language than I do in D.
