I would consider Haskell and Clojure already "almost mainstream", as there
are
quite a few companies listing jobs with them. Some of them quite important,
like Intel, Microsoft, LinkedIn, Galois, JaneStreet among others.

The answer about Clojure seems written by someone living under a reality
distortion field. Surely Haskell, D and Clojure are not "mainstream". The
only "mainstream" thing of D is its C-like syntax.
The relative Reddit thread shows that there is a significant ignorance still
about purity and immutability of D.
