Of course Go is "ok". It has a very basic type system and some dubious decisions but it also gets a lot right (especially tooling) and clearly has different design goals to the languages you like.

It's not my favourite language by a long shot but it's definitely ok. At least by the standards of most popular languages (Python, Javascript, C++, etc.)

It sounds like you have a very naive view of the real world and maybe need to get some more experience of life. And I mean that in a very patronising way.

I think Go’s more than OK. The language itself isn’t my favorite, but a good stdlib, good tooling, and a fast compilation step makes me reach for it often. I don’t hate it.
