D has been a real pleasure for me. I did the 2017 AoC in it: http://jordi.inversethought.com/blog/advent-of-d/ http://jordi.inversethought.com/blog/advent-of-d/ The richness and flexibility of compile-time features almost make it feel like a lisp, with the slight downgrade of sometimes working on strings of source code instead of sexps. Regardless, like the article says, D's metaprogramming alone is worth the entry price of reading a few books or tutorials about the language.
