Well, it is better to have good information. If you zoom in on
the link above you'll see some interesting facts on daily
patterns. The Swift and Go graph go way down in weekends, so
they are used by businesses. Rust does not, so it currently is
appealing to hobbyists. D should think about capturing some of
that Rust audience.
What is important is to be realistic, so that a good strategy
can be selected.
Right now Rust may have 10x more interest than D, and C++ 40x
more interest than Rust. Just a guesstimate based on search
frequencies, but it stacks up with github.
C++ is likely searched the most because every time you need to do
anything non-trivial you need to go on Stack Overflow or a
similar site and find out how to do it, because there is very
little chance you would ever be able to figure out the syntax on
your own :o)
