How is D holding up against newer upstarts like Go and Rust?

It seems that D never really got the love it deserved, perhaps because it didn't have a Google or Mozilla behind it.

Our user base is steadily growing. Coming soon is a nice upgrade to the language designed to eliminate stray pointers into expired stack frames.

I feel it is my duty as a language designer to make it hard for programmers to commit common bugs. It's just too expensive for companies to ship these kinds of things.
