Why are you using D instead of Rust?

I started with D before Rust existed. Also, I can't get around 
Rust syntax, I don't find it fun to look at. And in the projects 
I like to do, memory safety is not of utmost importance and the 
borrow checker gets in my way more than I'd like it to.

What I like about Rust however is how quickly their ecosystem is 
growing and how they have a good focus on features. Good focus on 
features means they have very good foundations in de-facto 
official things like HTTP libraries or serialization.
