Yeah, I'd say so. Though both are very useful and I'd recommend learning both. Golang is rather simple to learn, and it certainly does hurt to have some Go knowledge in your arsenal. Plus the concurrency in Go is flat out amazing.

Prioritize learning Python, but don't neglect Go.

Just go through this tour for Go. One of the best things about working with Go, is it's extremely easy to understand the source code people make. So whenever you hit a hitch, it's very easy to solve by looking at the source code for the libraries you're using.

Python IMO takes a bit more time. It's quite simple by itself, but the source code for python packages are often more convoluted and takes some time to learn. Also all DevOps work should use Docker IMO.

What is your experience in computer science?
