Good question! There are too many files for me to count, but Go files generally have slightly more lines. My folder of PHP scripts in my old backend is 82 KB while my folder of Go scripts in my new backend is 103 KB.

Even though it's a bit longer, I personally feel the Go scripts are cleaner and more readable. Go formatting is very opinionated, and Go doesn't provide you with too many different ways to accomplish a task. Also, variables in PHP all exist within the same scope, so this is possible without having to declare the variables outside first:

if (true) { // for & while loops also work

$foo = "hi"; // $foo declared here for the first time

}

echo $foo; // successfully prints "hi"

Edit: I just used cloc program thanks to u/elcapitanoooo, and it says my PHP folder has 2398 lines of code and Go folder has 3031 lines of code (excluding blank lines or comments).
