Idea: There should be some kind of news ticker for all

twitter with a special #tag beside #dlang where all updates
are announced. And a place on the homepage, where this feed
is displayed separately.
It's already there on the right side of https://dlang.org/
with a special #tag beside #dlang
The focus was on a feed with _two_ tags #dlang and #dfoundation
for example.
In the feed on the homepage everything is mixed up and I am
feeling a lot information about progress - made in the
background - is missing.
Maybe there should be a blog post, with some kind of status
report every .. weeks or .. month? Telling more about the focus
of the D foundation, statistics of downloads, number of fixed
bugs, partly similar to Adams week in D but more official. I
think the content of such a post may find its way into more
mainstream IT magazines, if marked as official d foundation
press release even more.
The best status report I've met is definitely the FreeBSD
quarterly status report:
https://www.freebsd.org/news/status/status.html
I suggest to take a look at that, as an inspiration.... and yes,
a quarterly report is enough.
