I'm certainly not a fan of Go, but I suspect generics will result in the language and ecosystem getting better. I'm not personally a fan of the go generics syntax because I find braces and parentheses to be visually similar, but I'm sure that would go away if I used it more.

I'd go for Rust tbh. I think it's a much more coherent language.

Wrote Go code daily for quite some time, also tried Rust.

I like Go because of the tooling and simplicity of the language, it's easy to learn and explain.

Rust has the borrow checker has a corner stone. The concept mutability and references is easier to understand if you are coming from the c/c++ side of things
