> Go also espouses "frameworks bad, libraries good" but the biggest difference is that they actually have a strong robust ecosystem of solid libraries while pretty much every Lisp claims to have production-ready libraries but expect you to cobble together the entire kitchen sink from scratch.

I mean, Java is pretty much the biggest ecosystem there is and it's trivial to use Java libs from Clojure, so I'm not sure this is a fair comparison.

The Go ecosystem seems pretty weak outside of the standard library. I'm not an expert, but I was trying to fix something the other week and was shocked by how few packages there were to solve my problem. The main one (which is a dep of things like k8s) is currently unmaintained.
