D2, as a language, favourably. As an ecosystem, not favourably.
I REALLY ENJOYED D1, REALLY! (CAPS 11). D1 was like C, but better. It was heavenly. D2 is like C++, but better. Not my cup of tea though. Give it a spin for a day or two. I'm sure you'll like it if you like C++. Trouble arises, as with all niche languages, when you try to move to production and you have to source libraries and/or support.
