I'm just a simple dev in a 3-man team building an app and a back-end to go with it. Our company is default dead. Maybe some day I will regret choosing Go for our back-end. But right now it is the right balance of scalability, easy async, good tooling, great back-end infrastructure (Google App Engine and Firestore) and productivity.
I read articles like this, and think to myself ... some future CTO will curse my choices today. But then I feel that future CTO will curse any choices I make, and it won't be fair for her to curse my choices ... because I'm just trying to get us from default dead to default alive without running out of the small amount of money we raised.
Rust is absolutely not an option for us. We don't have the skills or time to write a Rust backend right now.
