There's still some abominations in the D std lib, IMO, for instance:

I have reached that part in my life where this doesn't look insanely horrible and I am saddened by this fact.

Like Bauss said, it's easy to turn off the GC in D. The hard part is using the standard library / language features without a GC (arrays/slices, strings, etc. all use the GC)

That sounds absolutely horrible, maybe if there is a way to compile the "stl" without GC like boost without exceptions? Without their standard features, turning off the GC sounds like buying a high power rifle just to shoot yourself in the testicles.

The alias thing is super nice, the rest, not impressed. Not saying it's not good, just nothing that I would switch to D for from C++ in actual production.

I don't think that justifies all the horrible mess that header files bring.

Although, if you're using a documentation generator, you'd just look at the .ddoc (or whatever) file instead, that's much better, in my opinion, than looking through a header file anyways.

Well, not really, but there's a (again with the fucking removal of the "#" part of the URL ...)

I believe it was proposed to refactor phobos to not use gc though.

I don't think choosing D for the features it offers is bad. It's the lack of of libraries/community that blows.

From what others have pointed out (and from what I've seen in the past few years) D isn't bad, but it just hasn't had the traction some other languages have had (Go, Rust, Swift...? lol).

Plus, C++ has stepped up it's game a recently. A lot.

I wouldn't really say there's a lack of libraries, community, maybe.
The is pretty big and there's plenty of as well.

That's true, but look at the companies behind those languages. Google (Go), Mozilla (Rust), and Apple (Swift) are huuuuuuuuuuuuuuge companies with way more resources for advertising their languages.

Sure, but in the end, it's still C++, no matter how many bandaids you add.

That is not necessarily a bad thing, at the same time not necessarily a good thing. C++ has widespread use for decades, consistently, the latter being the keyword here. I found this to be an interesting talk, maybe you'll like it as well.

Thanks for the video, that was a pretty good talk. C++28 is gonna be so awesome!

So you're a man with a vag, is what you're saying? To each his own, I suppose.

But if there is no vag you will go for a d.
