As a primarily python programmer with some embedded C experience, I really liked the promise of Dlang when I first saw it, though somewhat it felt as dead language, especially compared to Rust, Zig or Nim - I would rarely hear about Dlang in my circles and bubbles.
Let’s hope OpenD takes off, wouldn’t mind tipping my toes in it once again.
Off-topic, but I’m curious why you would put Nim in that list. While I absolutely love the language, I’ve never heard of anyone using it for anything serious, especially compared to Rust or even Zig. I’d even be surprised if it has more mindshare than D.
(An absolute shame by the way. Nim looks like an absolutely fantastic language.)
