That's nice, but also rather self-congratulatory.
I was expecting some kind of acknowledgment of the deeper issues in the language.
But perhaps that's the central issue, that the language is perfect in their eyes.
I'm the problem.
Well, okay then.
I can't recommend the language, because of its type system, the error handling, the unsafe concurrency, the simplistic syntax, nil, default zero, and a large number of mainstream packages are abandoned.
I now use Rust as my main language. It has a flourishing ecosystem and is visionary in so many ways that Go is not.
Put more pointedly, I'm sure Go had its day, when it was competing with PHP as a backend language.
