My thought still hold true for desktop and backend cases, but I agree that I'd rather have a Go/Java app than an Electron one. Actually the point you made about FOSS software with thousands of developers is one against Go in my opinion because Go doesn't have strict language/syntax style guidelines as opposed to Rust, which will result in every library reinventing the wheel like with C/C++ libraries.

I'm also skeptical about anything Google releases as "Open Source", seeing how Android is also "Open Source" but is still rarely accepting Pull Requests from contributors outside of Google. Maybe Go is different but I'll first have to see it before believing it.
