"But, despite its achievement, D faced a classic problem. By the 
time D arrived, the world had already moved on. Enterprise 
companies were using Java and C#, and the world was still firmly 
locked into C and C++. A few years later, a language called Rust 
appeared which focused heavily on memory safety (the same 
principle as D), and it managed to capture the attention of the 
tech world in a way that D never quite managed — and effectively 
made D irrelevant.

Today, D exists as a highly respected niche language. It's 
actually used by companies like Netflix and eBay for specific 
high-performance tasks. It's a great language, but it never 
became a king."
