Despite all this, D may never do very well on mobile or

But at the very least, you should be looking at mobile and
AArch64, as they're taking over the computing market.
Coming from ARM system programming for embedded systems, I'm
also looking into AArch64. Having done some x86 assembly, ARM
assembly was a bliss, and AArch64 looks even better!
I also wish D will do well for embedded systems.
Radu has done good work getting D working with uClibc, for
example with OpenWRT:
https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/issues/2810
yshui added a Musl port too, which can be used with the Alpine
build of ldc available at the above ldc 1.11 link.
There have been a couple reports of companies trying to use ldc
for this, but there are likely still bugs that need to be ironed
out.
