Hey /g/, is there a language that strikes a nice balance between the simplicity and eloquence of C, and the ease of use of C++? I'm tired of the clusterfuck that is C++ and it's over reliance on boost, but can't imagine being able to work effectively in plain C. I also need good multi-precision support, whether that's part of the languages standard library or external. Is D any good?
If you want a language that is just fun to use: Ruby
If you want to actually learn something: Haskell
If you want something that is actually useful stick to C/C++
If you're interested in D go learn it
Can this thread be done now?
Do you enjoy answering questions like "why?", "what's wrong with you?" and "for what purpose?" If you answered yes to all three then D is the language for you.

Other than boost asio, in what way is there a reliance on boost?
C++ is fine as long as you aren't fighting the language and just go with the flow.

Try zig.

D is probably going the all-tools-in-one-box route of C++ and your post implies that's not your thing.
