> You massively overestimate C#. Microsoft devdiv marketing is working.
No, I don't. And it isn't based on marketing.
I've done C# since around 2001 and Go since around 2015 (in both cases tools, sites, and APIs) so my perspective on relative performance is from first-hand knowledge.
As regards Java I don't think the comparison is controversial, and I've done Ruby (and some Rails) on and off for many years and whilst some of it may be down to familiarity, I still find C# (after acclimatising to the .Net/Core Framework) to be equally readable, flexible, and simple.
You're totally free to disagree of course, I'm just taking the opportunity to correct the impression that I'm "overestimating" C# based on marketing when in reality there's no estimation happening at all - I'm speaking from personal experience.
