Of course not. It's the same as with the Docker hype a few years ago. I don't get it. Still today everyone seems to think an app is better when it's "dockerized". Now with Go everyone can write buggy, memory leaking programs. I prefer apps written in C whenever a I can.

Not sure why on earth you think something would be non-buggy or non-leaky just because its written in C. I avoid C for almost any user mode work save a few things.

I'd expect the C to be buggier, personally

Garbage collection should make apps written in Go less memory-leaking and less buggy than those written in C, no?
