There was a recent video[1] by Jonathan Blow about what he
would want in a programming language designed specifically for
game development. Go, Rust, and D were mentioned and his reason
for not wanting to use D is is that it is "too much like C++"
although he does not really go into it much and it was a very
small part of the video it still brings up some questions.
What I am curious is what are the worst parts of D? What sort
of things would be done differently if we could start over or
if we were designing a D3? I am not asking to try and bash D
but because it is helpful to know what's bad as well as good.
I will start off...
GC by default is a big sore point that everyone brings up
"is" expressions are pretty wonky
Libraries could definitely be split up better
What do you think are the worst parts of D?
