And, of course, Rust has Mozilla pushing it.
Well, I don't know what muscle Mozilla has. I don't really understand where they get their money from (in part from Google?). Mozilla backing Rust is on a smaller scale than M$ backing C#.
Go is being pushed by Google and now Canonical, so its market penetration and traction in the programming community is assured.
The Go user forum is the most active one I have seen besides the one from Python. But it doesn't look like Go is a success inside Google itself so far. For both, Go and Rust, wait and see might be a good strategy.
