Posted in reply to dnewbie | Been following along since around 1999, but didn't join into group until June 2004 when I started writing in D (version 1) code and building a personal D project website (which hasn't been updated in a long time). A lot has changed...it's no longer a one-man band with Walter trying to do everything...it's for the better. But still I haven't gotten back into writing D2 code. |

I've checked the repositories, D in production since 2006.

I'd been aware of D since around 2008, but didn't actually start using it until January 2012.

I remember watching the changelog and wondering if the next version after v0.99 was going to be v1.0.

I started playing around with D in 2005, I think, but it wasn't
until 2007 that I started using it for real. I had the good
fortune of being able to use D professionally for the four years
that followed, but in 2011 I had to go back to C++, and am now
using D (almost) solely for hobby projects.
I am trying hard to spread the good word at work, though, and
make sure to bring up D every time one of C++'s shortcomings give
us troubles. :)

Yeah, I'd forgotten about that, but now you mention it, I think even there was a discussion on that topic.

Yes, yes! I remember that it was some discussion about the position of planet Mars or something! Everybody was disappointed to see 0.100... :( |

I remember trying D1 many years ago, but I got put off by the whole "choose tango or phobos" thing back then. I'm glad to see those days are behind us.

These results are a bit disappointing. Ideally you'd see a massive bias
towards new users, but we see the opposite :(
Perhaps this poll isn't public enough? On reddit and stuff?
