Ridiculous. One data point does not make a trend.
Phobos is "obviously" production ready as it's being used in production
at many companies https://dlang.org/orgs-using-d.html
So companies are willing to build their infrastructure on D because they
have determined that it's ready for there uses. But we've had a similar
argument before; IIRC you brought up something about toy languages in
use in companies.
I don't mean this as disproof, but many companies are not using Phobos,
even though they use D.
Sociomantic definitely does not (they use D1 currently, and their D2
port probably uses a port of their library as well), and I believe
Weka.io does not either.
Again, this isn't proof that Phobos isn't production ready. It depends
on what you need, and whether Phobos satisfies that need.
