If I were to be completely honest, Google is the main reason keeping me from diving into Go. And it's the same reason why I'm not that interested in C# and Swift as well. The problem with corporation-run languages is that the corporation eventually loses interest in maintaining their leadership, leaving the language to flounder and basically become a zombie version of itself. Look at the current state of Java if you don't get what I mean.
It's a little more complex than that. Jakarta EE is what used to be Java Enterprise Edition, which, despite the name, was really an application framework mainly designed for server applications....
It's a little more complex than that. Jakarta EE is what used to be Java Enterprise Edition, which, despite the name, was really an application framework mainly designed for server applications. OpenJDK is now the official 'everyman' JDK, while Oracle's JDK is a paid product. And instead of having customers install and run a JRE on a computer-wide basis, developers are expected to include their own JRE with their applications.
At least that was my understanding before I gave up on Java altogether.

Oddly enough, with Oracle donating Java to Eclipse as Jakarta EE, the modern Java development is(much) more community-driven as Go.

This is an important distinction to keep in mind. Thanks for reminding me. ANSI C for life! ;)
