I would beg to differ.

On Github[0], Go currently sits at #3 for pull request volume (C# is at 10), #3 for stars (C# is at 8), #6 for pushes/commits (C# is at 10) and #6 for issues opened (C# is at 9). By each of those metrics, Go has a significantly more vibrant ecosystem than C#.

If you like arbitrary metrics, here is another:

I would think that data is only about the publicly visible part of GitHub, and guess C# has relatively more activity in the dark part of GitHub.

Now, whether that would move C# over golang, I wouldn’t dare guess.

This is one of the better rankings. But I would add that these will significantly underrepresent enterprise-type projects, where C# is often used. Some say that job listings give a more accurate picture, and while I didn’t look it up, I do believe that C# has more positions.
