On: Why Go is my favorite programming language

Yes, I meant it's not like Apple is forcing it on external developers though, like e.g. they "force" Swift.

Google could do that (if they adopted Go on Android), but I think they went with Dart instead IIRC.

Sure, but at the same time it creates awareness in other companies that Go is a good bet that they might adopt as well.

They went with Kotlin.

Dart is still looking for a killer application beyond supporting AdWords, lets see how far they go with Flutter or Fuchsia.
