One of the things I love the most about Ruby is that it tends to coalesce around one or two really popular libraries. Rails is the big one obviously, but over time you see libraries designed for a particular purpose "winning" over other things. This includes things like linting/code analysis (Rubocop), authentication (Devise), testing (RSpec and Minitest) and more. The emphasis is on making something good great rather than making a lot of different good things.

In Go, it seems like packages themselves are nowhere near as popular as the language, compared to what I see elsewhere. I haven't been in the ecosystem long, but it seems to be rare that articles about Go coalesce on a particular solution similar to Rails or something like lodash or express in the JavaScript world. Instead, the main feeling when asked "How do I do X" in Go seems to be "do it yourself". The kind of thing that in Ruby would be derided as "plumbing" is "real code" in Go; the goal is to make you think about every single line you write.
