My experience has been the same, so it’s hard to understand where shawn is coming from. There have been impressively few breaking changes to the Go standard library since 1.0. Even when bringing in a number of third-party packages, the only trouble I’ve had building Go projects has been in Windows (which is often treated by Gophers as a second-class platform).
