Why V is again on front page? It's nothing more than Go with fewer libs and packages.

And I wonder, WHO compile a programming language to use it?

It can be learned in 1 hour? Yes. Go can be learned in 1 hour.

Honestly I don't see any benefits using V. Is nothing more than Go renamed with "V" and "marketing".

That's clearly incorrect. V has significant differences between it and Go. Suggest actually reading the documentation. https://github.com/vlang/v/blob/master/doc/docs.md

And more bugs

I'm reading this: https://vlang.io/compare#go

Never used V and barely used Go. But still, some of those differences are a huge plus in my mind. For example Go FFI is notoriously slow.

Also immutability by default, enums, generics, no global state. Sounds awesome to my hears!

They are awesome on paper, but in reality implementation is full of bugs and doesn't work as advertised.
