There is forum.golangbridge.org and maybe more, but the problem is, how to 
take 200k+ Gophers with you?

/r/golang is the largest Go community I know of, and its size makes it as 
vibrant as it is. Relocating this community as a whole is virtually 
impossible. You'd risk ending up with multiple, small, low-traffic 
communities. Join one, and you'll miss out. Join them all, and you'll see 
questions and information duplicated everywhere.
