I remember hearing about D fairly early on and thought it sounded interesting, but there wasn’t a compiler for the kind of targets that I was working on. And then every time I’ve heard about it since it’s been that there was some interesting things being developed for it, but that some inscrutable community drama meant that it once again was floundering. ciiiiiircle of life
