I spent around 15 years doing Java exclusively, and after discovering Go (around 2012) I couldn't wait to adopt it and have never looked back since. I don't think Go is perfect, but I find it a much better default pick for most things I've worked on compared to Java. Of course Go has limitations, especially in the type system and error handling, but rather than go back to Java for those cases where it matters most to me, I tend to choose Rust these days. It shares some of the advantages of Java (compared to Go) and also comes with its own set of other major advantages too.
