There are many good reasons to run macOS. But if you run Linux, instead of macOS, you will get a package manager (one supported by your distro) that performs most (if not all) of the functionality of brew. I find it frustrating to see people use macOS and rely/complain about brew.

Yeah, additionally it would be unwise to use Go in embedded systems because it is so reliant on heap memory for dynamic allocation. In certain situations where things could fail if an operation takes too long - rocketry and robots - it would be difficult to tell how long something would take in Go with any degree of certainty because allocating and freeing memory on the heap is highly non-deterministic.
