That's the funny thing about languages like D or Go or Rust that try to replace C. C programmers don't use them. If they get any adoption its from elsewhere (rust seems to be hyped by haskell and rubes, Go by pythonistas)<
That's because once you replace C, you aren't a "C programmer" anymore.
I mean, sure, I can still write C as well as the next guy and indeed do from time to time, so I guess technically I'm still a C programmer... but the majority of things I would have used C for eight years ago are written in D now.
