Seems most people don't understand that Golang is filling a niche that was not covered by anyone: fast, type safe, portable, memory-managed, simple.
Every language sucks at something. Switching from Ruby/Python to Golang feels like losing magic powers, yes, but some problems are better tackled without that magic and type safety comes as a plus.
Ruby/Python/C/Java/Scala/Erlang/Elixir/JS/Haskell/Lisp/Clojure/Rust all have different niches. We should really get over it.
