Facebook, Ebay, Mercedes Benz and a few others[0] don't seem to believe so. Better tell them to use a different language?
I'm on a Discord for Dlang that's quite active honestly. The D community is plenty active. Their forums and IRC. Maybe not as active as other language communities, but it's not made by Mozilla or Google which gets a lot more attention.
Source: I worked at Facebook for four years. My first diff at Facebook was even in D, in a project that was already effectively abandoned by the time I changed it.
It's really a tiny, insignificant minority of actively running code there, possibly zero by now.

The already "use a different language" for most of their stuff.
Their D use is tokenish, the way you can find any bizarro, niche language used somewhere big. That doesn't mean the language is in any kind of widespread use, just that some teams in some big company or another adopted it - as outliers.
