I’ve never used D but this really makes me want to give it a shot. Did anyone try it, and would you recommend using it?

    I’m a D developer, and D is so far the best language I’ve tried. It has very powerful meta programming capabilities, looks much nicer than Rust, and supports multiple paradigms. My main gripe is the lack of libraries, but it’s pretty easy to either write your own, or a binding to a C or C++ one. I wrote a couple of my own libraries, and I’m currently writing my own replacement for SDL, called iota, and I aim it to be a smaller version of it (e.g. not including things into it that already exist in the Runtime and Phobos).

    I really like multi paradigm programming, as most programming paradigms are good at a select few things, while over-complicate others.
