I really want to love Go for side projects but it’s just so verbose and time consuming.
I understand that a framework with ”batteries” goes against Go principles, but coming from Rails, which solves the common boring problems for me, Go just makes it too much of a pain.
At least as far as web dev goes, I’m sure Go is great for other stuff.
Back in 2012 or sometime around it, I was trying Akka a Java library and trying concurrency and stuff. Around the same time I gave Go a try and it was much less verbose and simple. Never looked at Java after that, but I never felt Go is verbose.
