When it comes to syntax, it's always a personal feeling. For instance I always found Rust syntax much easier to work with than Go's (which looks really alien to me, with both var and :=, the type annotations which are C's but backwards, the syntax for structs methods, the several for syntax, the defer statement, etc.)

Actually I don't really understand why some people complain about Rust syntax. The only alien thing is the lifetime ('a) syntax, but you don't need it that often, and the concept behind it is way more difficult to learn than the syntax itself (and it's where Rust's breakthrough comes so you have to learn this concept anyway).
