D has suffered from lack of corporate sponsor, and there were a couple of reboots trying to chase the next big thing that would bring more people in, this allowed other language ecosystems to improve their shortcomings, thus reducing the distance in language features.

From my point of view in systems programming, experience with Oberon back in the day and such, I would really like that we would be talking more about D and less about Rust and Go, but unfortunately it isn't how things went.

As someone who has no idea what Oberon is or does sorry and believes that using anything other than Rust is literally pouring blood on your hands and de facto proscribes you in the future inquisitions on digital harm through software, why?

Oberon is the language Niklaus Wirth designed after Pascal and Modula.
