From a Rustacean's perspective: Golang is a no go because it lacks enum types, sensible error handling, generics (I think it has some version of this now), non-nullable types, or macros. Once you've gotten used to using these kinds of features in Rust, it is really annoying to go back and work in a language that lacks them. Basically, golang takes such an opposite design approach to Rust, that if you like Rust you'll probably hate golang.

We also find that once you get used to the borrow checker, we mostly don't miss garbage collection. And garbage collection isn't a panacea either, as almost any large project still ends up with memory leaks caused by stray references.

So, basically, we like Rust and think its a well designed language. It is quite frankly better, as a language, than any of the alternatives that we could be writing in. As such, it'd be nice if we could develop GUI applications in it.
