What libraries are missing?
https://github.com/cockroachdb/apd is currently the best implementation in the ecosystem (performance, correctness). Have you already evaluated it?
-
Lack of Decimal Support
FWIW I think cockroachdb/apd is the best third party option. While building bojanz/currency I've evaluated and benchmarked the others and found them either less maintained, slower, or both.
-
Small Fixed-Point Decimals library
I have a package for handling currency amounts and calculations that is based on cockroachdb/apd, in my opinion the best arbitrary-precision decimal implementation in Go right now. So, I can offer a bit of insight.
- cockroachdb/apd v3.0.0
-
Library recommendation -- money calculations, more accurate handling of floats
The best decimal package is still cockroachdb/apd. I wrap it in bojanz/currency for money handling.
-
What libraries from other languages do you wish were ported over into go?
https://github.com/cockroachdb/apd remains the best decimal library for Go (ericlagergren/decimal is faster but unmaintained).
-
currency - Currency amounts and formatting for Go
Note: In benchmarks ericlagergren/decimal was noticeably faster than cockroachdb/apd, but it has known bugs when used with go mod, so I decided to wait and go with cockroachdb/apd for now. The Amount struct wraps the decimal implementation completely, making it easy to do the swap later without breaking BC.

Building a telegram client with react-native (Part 1)
Add to build.gradle(:app) android - see, https://github.com/tdlib/td/issues/1904

Please a linux client... I'm missing it more than a mobile app.
It would be a good idea for Proton to write Drive using something similar to Telegram's https://github.com/tdlib/td. That way they could write their official clients more easily, and third party clients could be created with a lot of the work done.

possible to use td with golang
https://github.com/tdlib/td is it possible to use td with golang

telega.el - GNU Emacs telegram client
The problem there is mostly with how they're doing releases for tdlib: They create proper releases for major versions (like 1.7.0, 1.8.0), and then nothing for all for point releases (like 1.7.1), not even git tags - they're seeing those releases as development releases. They do a lot of (breaking) changes and new features between releases - so while distributions might want to stick with proper releases others might want to follow git (and the author is following git with his development branch).
- Telegram has broken compatibility with old clients
- PHP Extension written with C++. Build and check with GitHub Actions.

What libraries from other languages do you wish were ported over into go?
tdlib, but it's huge

[Feature Request] Limit/disable/remove option to delete chats on both ends
I think taking advantage of https://github.com/tdlib/td (telegrams library) to build some backup mechanism around it would be the best way forward.
