I learnt D (D1 to be precise) out of curiosity in... 2005 or 2006. At that time, there's only 1 compiler: DMD (no GDC/LDC yet), and there was the tango/phobos fragmentation. I think my intention at that time was looking for a "better C++" alternative. These days, for system programming Rust is gaining much attention. And if you don't need such low-level control and can happily live in GC-land, probably Go/Nim suits you better. Well, I'm not a C++ coder (mostly code in Java/Kotlin). Not sure how I'm going to use D these days...
