And the whole GC keeps coming up as a negative ( compared to
Rust ).
From my understanding there has been a proposal DIP1000 to
address this issue. Is there any update on this topic?
Is it possible to run D without the GC AND the standard library?
You might find this blog post relevant:

There is opposition to the GC from a small but vocal group of
mostly C++ developers. Sometimes they even make valid arguments.
You can find many threads on the topic here.
