Replying to my own post for posterity because edits are closed and I missed the obvious Go/Golang. This pushes Go to the top winning it a "major award".

One other item I noticed is on average "written in Rust" has about 3 times the number of comments as "written in Go/Golang" for the more popular posts. Clearly, Rust gets a major award too.
