That's it right there! With Go you have to get over this idea that _your_ preference has any place in Go code. Go was designed to be inflexible in style and immune to preference from the start. For those new to Go, if they can't get over that hump then it's really hard not to be frustrated with the language.
- unsignedint 6y agoI think this is where like/dislike is polarized. Some may see the language being way too opinionated for that aspect, while some may be fine. (Also if such style is already aligned with their own established preference.) I myself prefer less opinionated languages. As a professional, if someone presents me with a Go code, I will of course work with one, but it definitely won't be my go to language.
