How would you compare it to C#? Stable-ish There's a lot of documentation and plenty of stablished patterns, so LLM can produce it no sweat Everything and the Kitchen Sink Performant, and safeish, even if not null safe

In my experience C# works out pretty good. I wrote a project in Go, it mostly went well, but it had weird bugs and the AI struggled to solve them. Rewriting in C# seemed a lot more robust. I use it a lot these days and I find the AI rarely has any issues with language/framework and you get pretty good results.

Yeah, C# is probably the closest direct comparison. I like that Go emits a simple binary, whereas it seems like that needs to be configured with a .NET project. Probably just a matter of taste/preference!
