    It was supposed to be a better C without the bloat and madness of C++, right?

    D was sold as a better C++, way back then when C++ was stuck with C++98. To be more clear, D promised to be C++ under active development. That was it’s selling point.

    In the meantime C++ received 2 or 3 major updates, and thus D lost any claim to relevance.
