D is indeed a fully equipped machine shop, but nobody says you have to start with the Bridgeport milling machine. You can write very capable programs with just the C-ish subset.

I tried, I really did, but then I got distracted by all those shiny features and was unable to resist the temptation to play with them all. :-) I had the same problem with C++.

I will probably give it another try one day, if only for the super-friendly and welcoming community.
