But you are the objective observer I guess.

Here is the thing: I think I have a better handle on actual D 
shortcomings than you.
Read the whole thing: https://p0nce.github.io/d-idioms/
Pretty critical at times.

I used to be in detailed trivia about D. Addiction for sure. I 
complained a lot about the language.

But something else I realized is that D cannot really fill three 
books of "Effective D", let alone one.

Things are actually quite good. Even compared to the "better" 
competition you mention all the time.

I look at reality: my D products cause me zero problems, make 
money, are as-fast-as-native can be, easy to maintain, and build 
faster than in similar languages (with the exception of Nim whose 
creator actually read the forum there, and is a competent 
alternative).
