I would question those rankings, at least for code that's used for forward-looking purposes; in my experience, Go is rapidly replacing Java and in a number of cases Python for backend applications, and it has a lot of first-party support for things like API clients, telemetry, etc. that comes before those languages in many cases as well. I feel like most people who dislike Go generally haven't used it. Having used it quite a bit, there are things I don't like a lot about it, but they're things that I feel like I can easily overlook given all the things it improves for me. Those are the things people who haven't really given it much use tend to seize on, in my experience (e.g. "Go doesn't have generics", "Go doesn't really have a good way to make an iterator", etc.). Rankings aren't generally very useful because they try to turn a massive vector quantity into a scalar for everyone's purposes, when in reality different people put different weights on things. It's much more likely that you're seeing the effects of "which language is most used", and Go is a lot younger than most of the other languages in those rankings. - Dave -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.

[go-nuts] Why isn't go more popular?
When you see the ranking of the most liked programming languages, go is near c++, a really "hated app". But since is efficient and produces really clean code, why no wants like it ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
