Yeah, I have mixed feelings about it as well. There are some good things, but there are also ugly warts.

For example if you try to use some numeric types that are not int, int32, float64 (for example float32 or uint16) you'll be in a lot of pain due to constant casting back and forth. Yes generics could solve this one too.

I also couldn't make myself enjoy programming in it. I think it's because it tried to be simple, so anyone can learn it. Because of it is kind of rare to say that you created with a creative way of solving specific problem.

That's very different to for example C, to which Go (at least early on) was compared to.
