I can only speak from experience, but I know two large corporate entities that used Java and have over the years dropped it in favor of Go and websites.

Edit: i like how my first hand experience is disagreeable and should be hidden. This site gets STRANGE with facts that users just don’t want to see.

You'd have more success with the vocal minority around here if you replaced Go with Rust.

Highly recommend doing an experimentation a week from now. You'll see exactly what I'm talking about.

I’m sure you’re right.

The issue is I can’t change my first hand anecdote of the two companies specifically I’ve been to having switched to Go and web apps from their older Java applications.
