What was hard to get used to when you came from Ruby?
I came from Java, but it should be said that the Java style I've been using since the mid 2005s (some functional influences and a lot of experience-driven minimalism) made learning Go really easy. I should be missing immutable types and types that can only be instantiated if the state is consistent, but for some reason I didn't. Perhaps it is that the Go mindset is just very easy to adapt to?
One thing I would say, though, is that you can feel that Go was a more deliberate language. Unlike most popular languages it wasn't really a language that grew out of inexperience and as a learning exercise for the language implementers. The authors already had a fairly good idea of what they wanted to accomplish and they had the attention to important detail that others tend to miss due to lack of experience.
