Yes. I'm actually worried about Golang too. Moved to it from Common Lisp but I am worried about the long term liability of it.
They also started doing telemetry and other things in the language because it is being treated as a product and then what happens if Google loses interest in it?
Would have gone all in on Rust if it just was aesthetically pleasing.
- mrastro 2y agoGolang is 14 years old, used by Google in production projects, and still in active development so it has a good track record. It's also open-source so worst case scenario it would get forked and community-maintained without Google backing. I wouldn't be concerned about Golang being deprecated.
