This is the direction JavaScript is going as well. Having used cancellation tokens in C#, I quite like the pattern. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/We

  How's it different than Go's context.Done() channel? Similarly it bubbles up everywhere the context is passed immediately, letting you terminate concurrent routines. I've used both .NET async/await (4 years ago) and Go ever since. The semantics and feel is nearly the same, the look is different.

    IMHO, being able to throw the error and it moving magically up the async stack (aka try/catch) makes it easier to get started while go makes it easier to maintain by forcing you to design a system around channels. This opinion is coming from a decade of .NET but just a few months of go experience so it's very skewed.
