I feel I may be an outlier here, but I love async functions (I mostly use Rust). I intuitively understand what will block and what won't, and can generally gauge the performance impact. I believe the few downsides are far outweighed by the massive benefits. Async functions allow me to build massively parallel and concurrent systems with ease - it's beautiful. In comparison, I'm not as fond of Go's approach to concurrency, which feels less elegant to me.
