I independently came to this conclusion myself a few months ago. I don't particularly enjoy working with Go. I find it to be cumbersome and tedious to write by hand. I find the syntax to be just different enough from C++ or C# to be irritating. Don't get me started on the package versioning system.

But it does have the benefit of having a very strong "blessed way of doing things", so agents go off the rails less, and if claude is writing the code and endless "if err != nil" then the syntax bothers me less.
