Node.js adds several orders of magnitude more packages as well. That doesn't mean much, other than that a lot of disputable quality packages are added, introducing needless entropy and dependency hell. I compiled a simple Rust program (pueue) a few weeks ago which pulled ~290 deps, which served as a reminder, although nothing broke compared to node and also no deprecation and security warnings. Golang is no different.

And there are orders of magnitude more JS programmers. Not every package on DUB is a gem either. So I think overall it's a reasonable proxy for language popularity.

By other measures, like number of committers in open-source projects, it's also small and not growing:

GitHub trending struggles to find enough projects to show a full page:

And of course Golang dwarfs both in popularity. I'm not saying popular is good, but merely answering OP's question about language's growth.
