Go indeed has its problems. But the ones described in this article just prove the author is a Go newbie.

but still a Go newbie?

The article's points feel overly simplistic/shallow and lack the depth you'd expect from an experienced Go programmer.

I won't be dumping credentials, but perhaps the newbie is you?

I also review a lot of Go code. I see these problems all the time from other people.

Most of non-opinion parts of this article are "Go sucks because <insert newbie mistake>" or otherwise factually incorrect points.

At that point, all languages suck because there's newbie mistakes and I don't understand them.

Maybe it is time to dump credentials rather than being obscure. I don't believe it for a moment that you have decade+ experience in Go.
