I like Go because everything is super simple. From dependency management to unit testing to performance profiling to its build/deploy story, everything just works. I don't need to learn a new configuration language and project configuration format and complex dependency management system just to build my project. I don't need to pick a unit test framework and test runner. I don't need to figure out how to wire said framework / test runner into my build tooling. I don't need to figure out how to ship my app along with its dependencies or make sure that my deployment target has the right version of a VM installed. I don't even need to worry about learning a new IDE. I could keep going, but it's things like this that matter to me even more than the language itself.
