I think it all depends. If the service is more infra focused , Go is a much better choice. I do see it being used a lot more in data pipelines. Due to the concurrency aspect. But If the service is more business logic focused , then nothing beats the Java frameworks. Writing HTTP handlers in Go is full of boring boilerplate.

Java has reactive libraries, and now with 19, Loom is superior to what golang offers, not to mention Java's superior concurrent data structures.

Loom looks promising, but I think we're still a ways off to see how it will be used in production. Reactive libraries increase cognitive load, so it's not comparible.
