While Rust can be technically superior to Go for a lot of use cases, Go has been most fun to program in for me for last 2-3 years. Coming from mostly Python/JS and having maintained systems in Java and Ruby as well, I still feel happiest when writing Go code. I don't know why but I think it's because I've never had deal with a system in Go where I had to peel layer after layer to find how something worked no matter who wrote it. All Go projects I've come across and contributed to have been extremely simple to read, understand and contribute to. _I think_ that is what makes me enjoy maintaining systems in Go so much.
