Interesting perspective.

Coming from C#, whose generics are first class, I struggled to obtain any real value from Go's generics. It's not possible to execute on ideas that fit nicely in your head, and you instead end up fighting tooth and nail to wrangle what feels like an afterthought into something concrete that fits in your head.

Generics works well as a replacement for liberally using interface{} everywhere, making programs more readable, but as class and interface level I tend to avoid it as I find I don't really understand what is going on. I just needed it to work so I could move on
