i haven’t written a whole lot of go, but from what i’ve done and what i see coming in go 2 i don’t really want to have to write a lot more. go felt like it was modern-vintage to start with memory management but also values/pointers. with a heavy emphasis on multi return error handling instead of generics (Either), nil instead of Option, and mutability by default
and the future seems to be more weirdness. magic methods like handle. list comprehensions still uncertain. contracts sound like a backwards compatible break and duplicate of existing functionality.
i used go to use libraries and low memory foot print for my small projects. but i bet there’s simpler routes out there
