Coming from Java/C# with exceptions Go felt like an improvement

Most languages eventually end up confusing 'try-catch', errors, exceptions, handle?, re-throw?... Together with most programmers mixing internal erros, business errors, transient... Creating complex error types with error factories, if and elses... Everything returning the same simple error is simply genious

Also a lot of zig posts are tone def like this. "Oh look something so simple and we're the first to think about it. We must be really good"
