The documentation is a big point, but to me, two other points are just as important, maybe (probably) more so: 1. The standard library is very good in the sense it covers a fairly wide range of areas and gives you some idea of how to use Go idiomatically (I feel this is more important in Go than in other languages I've used). 2. The language just feels right to me. I have not met any other language that feels like it was optimized for my brain that well. I recently made an attempt at learning Rust, and I kind of got it, but I eventually gave up because the benefits did not seem worth it to me in light of the steep learning curve. Go just clicks with me. It's not the best language ever by whatever metric you choose, but for my needs, it is the right language.
