8 reasons developers love Go-and 8 reasons they don't
Briefly

Golang, or Go, was developed by Google engineers in 2007 to address the limitations of existing programming languages for managing extensive data and network connections. Publicly released in 2009, it gained traction for its simplicity and efficiency, rising to prominence and becoming integral to Google's infrastructure. Although it has achieved popularity, with notable rankings on the Tiobe index, it remains divisive among developers. Key features that attract users, such as its ease of learning and C-like syntax, are often the same aspects that critics find frustrating.
The Go language, while easy to learn and featuring a C-based syntax, brings polarizing opinions due to its strict rules and extensive error handling.
Go has emerged as a prominent language, climbing to the top 10 of the Tiobe index, reflecting its growing acceptance among many programmers outside Google.
