Multiple in fact. D1 vs D2, Tango vs Phobos, mutable by default vs const by default (was minor, but allegedly lead to the existence of Rust), Adam D Ruppe leaving and forking the compiler (OpenD - might be useful to you depending on things), “let nazis code” (though DLF have not only backtracked on it but also set up some basic safety measures), etc. Can still recommend the language if you want a more C-style language and not OCaml with curly brackets, or if borrow checker is a dealbreaker for you in Rust.
This is definitely about the D language, I just haven’t heard anything about in a long time (since Rust ate its lunch) and nothing about it using AI or long time devs leaving.
Was there drama with D? I’m out of the loop…

What do you mean by that?
(Also, if possible, please do more of this meme with other languages)
We really all need to get along and accept each others’ opinions. Even if some people are completely wrong and think mutable by default it OK. Hehe.
The Wikipedia article for D links to this blog post which seems pretty damning.
There have been something where some developers left, but I don’t remember it well enough to search for.
I think it’s just a joke about slang aka D for Dick.
