Long story short, if you prefer to manage your own god-damn
memory manually, D isn't the way to go. No sir, you are stuck
with an inefficient GC.
They've been improving the GC for years,
but it's still not good enough.
How does the quality of the GC even matter if you're not going
to use it?
- You can't use slices.
See my other post. This is not true. They aren't quite as
powerful or convenient without the GC, but you definitely can use
them.
