Well, project loom will make the JVM arguably a better platform for concurrency.
Basically every language is more expressive there (even Java), GC is much much better - in benchmarks it is not as obvious only because Go avoids creating garbage most of the time, but it can’t always be avoided; and the platform is incomparably richer on the JVM side.
