Is this a big problem with D? I don't do stack overflow often, but I
try to check in every few days to check the D tag, and I usually see
answers there by the time I click it.

I don't think it is a big problem, 28 unanswered questions out of just
over a thousand isn't a terrible stat, but most of those unanswered
questions seem to have been there for months. About 1/2 of them have an
answer, but are not marked as such. Often the question isn't clear, or
the answer is given as a comment.

I'm not saying that the D community is unresponsive, quite the opposite
is true, my main point was that one cannot dismiss the value of
discoverability.

Yes. In a way SO is preferable to this forum because it's much more popular.
