Seen D being posted regularly on here, seems like flogging a dead horse. It's the equivalent of keeping grandma on life support when there is no hope.

You'd be surprised to see how active the D community is, despite your fair point that it's noticeably smaller than in the "competing" (in quotes because it's not a competition, actually) languages.

The latest release [1] was on Jan 7th, and it contains more updates than, say, the latest release of Dart, which has one of the largest corporations behind it.

To be fair, the release cadence has been in a bit of a mess lately. But I expect that to be fixed soon. We don't want 6 months between releases.
