> Go used to do raw system calls on macOS, and binaries were occasionally broken by kernel updates. Now Go uses libc on macOS, and binaries are forward compatible with future macOS versions just like any other C/C++/ObjC/swift program. OS X 10.10 (Yosemite) is the current minimum supported version.
They tried but macOS doesn’t have any user<>kernel stable API so you have to rely on libsystem to provide it. (It broke very often so they changed it to use libsystem)
