Now all three parts of the round 1 are over and finalized. There's a third-party website, which provides some stats: https://cpjsmith.uk/gcj/year?year=2022

It's interesting that D is one of the least popular programing languages with only a single digit number of users. It never managed to gain traction for some reason even in this niche. Yes, I know that there's a big discussion in another forum thread about why D is unpopular in general: https://forum.dlang.org/post/axslxubumvtrudpjf...@forum.dlang.org

In programming competitions the experimental nature of the programming language and never ending compatibility breakages are a non-issue, because there's no need to maintain the written code over the span of many years. So it may seem that D should be a very good choice for programming competitions, but there's still no success. And it's not just the usual domination of C++ and Python languages. Rust is happily eating D's lunch.
