How many corporations is using D right now? 10?
Windows is still dominant OS and there are a lot of job
opportunities for C#.
D is unusable for startups or corporations where are junior
programmers hired anyway because it's too complicated to use.
And pay senior developers for job what can be done by juniors
but in different language is not worth.
(e.g. metaprogramming is great stuff but require high skilled
programmers to use it correctly.)
Yeah..let's use the D forums to bag D. What a great idea.
And, why are you trying to compare the state of C# to D.
I really do not see your point.
Besides being completely different languages, with completely
different purposes, one is backed by a billion$ corporation, and
the other is developed by a group of volunteers.
I cannot accept the assertion by some, that we 'should' look to
C# for language advice.
