Its weird people don't compare Go to Kotlin. It has channels and coroutines. I think Kotlin does better with contexts and I think flows are a really cool addition. There does seem to be a lot there but honestly, it reminds me a lot of Go in its pick up and play nature

Maybe because on the JVM it is a guest language and on LLVM, Kotlin/Native is barely production ready.

Having used Kotlin, I’m now actively switching to Go. I find it much more enjoyable to write. But this is also highly personal opinion. I feel seriously lost in Kotlin’s documentation. Go is a joy to me.
