Relative to its peers, no. Swift is much more successful, and even TypeScript, which is niche, is in the ballpark.
We'll see. I think people are overly bullish on go, but I'll eat crow in a few years if it's growing a lot into new areas.

programing languages that take over the world are extremely rare so you probably won't have to eat crow :)

I'm more bullish on Rust than Go. That's a prediction I could be wrong about ;)
-
Rust is nice but it's too complex and the syntax too horrible to ever take over the world (like erlang, ocaml etc).
-
Go is nice but it's too simplistic and the syntax too full of boilerplate to ever take over the world. At least rust is committed to change.

simplistic is what I like about it and no changes is a guarantee for stability unlike other languages/frameworks.

That sounds nice in the abstract.
-
sounds even better in practice, my web app uses the standard http lib, hasn't changed in 5 years unlike rails and friends.

I don't think your Rails experience matches mine.
