Amen to that --- and those who do will quickly lament the state of the "Modern Web"; fuckings to CloudFlare and the like for gatekeeping and calling everyone who doesn't use even slightly non-mainstream browsers or configurations (no JS?

But not giving up is the first step to success. I probably wouldn't use a browser in Go either, but as someone who has also been working on one of my own intermittently and knows how much opposition there is, I certainly encourage any attempts at increasing actual browser diversity.
