I work with go for years but never used a fw. At the beginning when i came from php, i looked for fw because that was how things were done. But once i let go of that idea and started making things by hand i never looked back. Go really does not need a framework. Sooner or later it starts to limit you. For example i used grpc a lot in the past but came to realize it was hindrance and now i just use proto files to define schemas and generate the structs but that's is all it does. Everything else is hand-made. I even moved away from SQL abstraction and just use sql and directly. Again, sooner or later there will be some limitation that will bother you and so it is just not worth it. And being able to tailor-made every part of the application for its desired purpose is priceless.
