There are better tools. It's a matter of adoption.
Popularity shouldn't be the deciding factor for tools of any kind.
Few people seem to be using these. At a guess the dev experience is not great.
It ain't backed by any popular service, so very few people use it, so very few dev implement it, so very few people use it ....
It isn’t popular? Like “uber and a dozen of similar sized companies and some major oss projects using it” not popular?
Why use any new & upcoming tool when an older, more popular tool inevitably has more community support and third-party components?
Not mainstream, and there must be a reason why. I guess ease of use, though I don't know.
Go users aren't satisfied with what's already being used? Big surprise.
It shows the code base rarely matters compared to user adoption.
So it's not as popular and less supported?
