Why don't you advertise more your language on Quora etc ?

Indeed, D gives better performance than other similar garbage 
collected languages like Java, C#, etc.

But I don't think that performance is really what will decide 
their programmers to give D a try, because they are used to their 
current ecosystem, and are comfortable in delivering their 
applications in time with it.

IMHO, what really matters to a developer experimenting a new 
language are :
- Is the new language easy to learn ? How long will it take me to 
become productive with it ?
- Is it really worth the effort ? How will it help me in getting 
the job done ?

D is easier to learn, it's *both* more programmer-friendly 
(arrays, maps, slices, foreach loops, references types, 
closures), less verbose and more complete (templates, etc) than 
similar mainstream languages.

Basically you just have to learn some sort of curated C++/Java 
mix.

And in return you enjoy the *expressivity and productivity* of a 
scripting-language like Javascript *without sacrifying 
performance or safety*.
