I feel mostly the same as the author. The Go ecosystem is so simple, logical and smooth that it is hard to reach out for something else. I do use other languages for one-off programs of course, be it bash, perl or javascript, depending on the task.

On bigger projects, the first pain point to appear for me is dependency management. It feels so antiquated in most other ecosystems, with loose compatibility contracts that add mental overhead. Go let’s you focus on the problem you are trying to solve, and you get so used to that luxury that using anything else quickly becomes painful.
