Maybe, but I don't think those that go to conferences represent
the majority. C++ conference presentations often show more high
level code than people usually write... A distorted reality.
What people in the D-forums don't get is that people who come to
complain on the forums and are perceived as detractors actually
represent that silent majority that never visit the forums, but
who want a completed system level development language solution,
not a glorified scripting language for scientific computing.
There is no future for D in that (too many competing solutions
backed by arrays of GPUs in the cloud).
The regulars on language forums tend to be die-hard-fans, which
leads to a distorted picture of reality. You can of course ban
the signal of frustration, and create an echo chamber, but then
there is no reality check feedback in the loop. And the language
fades away and becomes a relic of the past. Like most languages.
It is not unusual, it is typical.
