I would think otherwise, actually. Go seems to be the most popular choice at startups—anecdotally, of course. I have no data to back this, just what I’ve seen.

While I was interviewing a few months ago, there were plenty of startups looking for Go developers. Plus, startups reaching out to me about Go jobs.

Semi-counterpoint: I tried interviewing for Go jobs and asked the inconvenient questions early.

TL;DR: 11 out of the 12 preliminary interviews were about companies seeking maintainers of "legacy" Go code after important contributors left.

Like with you, not an actual representative sample but quite telling at least from where I am standing.

This implies that Go developers move onto something else? That's what I understand from your comment

I'm not implying anything except that maybe greenfield Go projects are not the majority. And even that's under question since I didn't look very far.
