Funny, I actually think golang typing to be extremely weak and hard to use, especially with all the pointers vs non-pointer values. Typescript is by far the best type system I ever used, but even compared to Java/C#/C++ the golang types are archaic and basic, more akin to ANSI C in power
Yes the types are better than dynamic languages, but compared to modern type systems it is not very good
