I have used Go for a good 5 years when performance and maintainability are the necessary trade offs. It has the unique feature that all the code sorta looks the same style, across users. So the readability remains high during maintenance. I don’t think it is the best at building rest or graphql APIs, or for highly complex data centric systems. For that I would reach for a language with better generic programming support and many libraries available - like TypeScript.
