Go is confusing to me. I just got a coupon code for a Udemy course about it, and it seems super great from the outset, and a lot of companies are using it. But... only 5 pages here, and most of it is complaining about the language. Did it just never get any traction? Is it dying out?

I don't think it's dying out, in fact, I get the impression that it's quite popular with new start-ups. My opinion is that you can't write "beautiful" code in go (which is of course very subjective), but that doesn't really mean that it's a bad language.
