Different problem domains have different cost/benefit analyses. I write in several languages daily depending on the problem I’m trying to solve. Go may not be right for most problems. But it works really well in the right situations. If you need something performant, efficient, easy to deploy, and easy and fast to build, Go checks those boxes. Deploying complex software written in Ruby, Python, Node, or Java can be a major pain, with thousands of files and dependency hell, or build-in-place which has its own set of risks. Versus deploying a single binary file, that runs faster, in less memory, more stably, and takes orders of magnitude less time to build? The other languages will need to be a lot better than they currently are to win that fight.
