Do you use Go? Because it sounds like no. In the last four years I've encountered I think two uses of generics in the wild in a 3rd party library. Both quite sensible.

Anyone moaning about how it's ruined Go is either not using Go, or simply impossible to please.

If you hate Go... and hey, you do you, I've got my own list of languages I don't like... find a better complaint because this one is simply nonsensical. "It doesn't let me map/filter/reduce" or "it doesn't fix lock problems" or other similar complaints have some grounding in reality, but this one is just absurd. Generics aren't used enough to be "the worst thing ever". Fears about how Go would instantly turn into a language full of generics that take generic arguments that take generic arguments have proved to be wrong.
