Is there much choice though in terms of jobs? I mean, is it worth learning D vs rust? I'm actually thinking about that nowadays, for what to learn next..

In terms of jobs I guess Rust has the edge, including all major ones in desktop, server and mobile OSes, there are still some companies using D though.

So if getting a job is your major learning motivation, then I guess Rust has definitely the edge there.

Well learning D or Rust likely will not help you get a job writing Javascript. My C# style is heavily influenced by D, for the better IMO.

I have some potential coming up to do some Typescript, it will be interesting to find out how to transfer my experience into this language.
