Totally agree. It's been a while since I have last used D but my experience is that it hits a sweet spot between classical C-like compiled programming languages and scripting languages. If you need both, scripting and performance, D is a good pick. If you are already familiar with C or C++, getting into D is not that hard.

Disclaimer: Nowadays I am more enthusiastic about Rust than D, but I still consider D to be a very solid and nice language.
