Go is actually widely adopted in web backends and desktop apps. You might just miss some scenarios. And from my naive perspective, Go is a strong type alternative than TypeScript though it has a unique idiom syntax, but for most web devs this could be a reason to adopt Go, e.g. Wails instead of Electron in desktop.

Outside Google, yes I guess.

Well I for one, think that using node, Python, Ruby on the backend is an anti pattern anyway.

And I certainly don't want to use a language that makes me feel like coding in Java 5, that was 20 years ago.
