My experience with Go have been very positive. Once you get over the initial irritation of the error handling, I think it works perfectly fine. I have never been so productive as I can be when programming in Go. I’m sure there are technically better alternatives, but it has a very good balance between features, speed, standard library and multi platform support. At least for the backend server tasks I use it for. My biggest complaint has more to do with the new module system and tooling. The (not so) new Go Language Server is still very buggy and almost unusable in my opinion.
