On an unrelated note, maybe there is something to this "open source (in Go)" phenomenon. I'm starting to think it's more than just a popularity contest, and has something to do with the engineer friendliness of Go.
Edit: But then I looked at syncthing's git repo and thought, nah!
- saljam 12y agoWhat's wrong with their git repo?
- dochtman 12y agoI've actually found building Go (Syncthing, in particular) for the packaging system I use (Gentoo's Portage) a complete PITA, to the point where I don't understand how it can be so broken. And I'm not really a fan of the language itself. Still, people are building some nifty things with it, so there must be something they like!
- zachlatta 12y agoReally? I'd be interested to know what sorts of issues you ran into. It's always been fairly trivial for me to make PKGBUILDs in Arch for projects that are built with Go.
