I wanted to learn Go, but Go 2.0 possibly being dead, I decided to stay away.

Thank you for your reply. It’s an ongoing topic.
Here’s what the Go blog said about it in 2023:
“Go 2, in the sense of breaking with the past and no longer compiling old programs, is never going to happen. Go 2, in the sense of being the major revision of Go 1 we started toward in 2017, has already happened.”
You can find the whole article here: https://go.dev/blog/compat
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
