Who returns specific error interfaces to model domain errors?
I usually use https://github.com/cockroachdb/errors for reasons that you can read in their documentation. It is well thought out and is no more complicated than it needs to be. It is a drop in replacement for the standard errors package and they have built this from experience, which is usually a good thing. It is usually best to stick to interfaces. With concrete errors, you will be doomed to deal with them forever.

Go's Error Handling Is a Form of Storytelling
https://github.com/cockroachdb/errors has worked great for me! Agreed this should be part of the core language though.

Anyone using github.com/pkg/errors for stack traces?
https://github.com/cockroachdb/errors is the most featureful in this space, but is heavy if you don't need network portability, redaction, and all the other bells and whistles.

Comparison golang stacktrace error library output
Golang is great. I mostly love it. However, collecting an error with relevant context and a nicely formatted stacktrace is kind of a mess of competing approaches. This this feature comparison is a good overview of the landscape.

Runnable Comparison of Libraries for Go Stacktrace Output
Golang is great. I mostly love it. However, collecting an error with relevant context and a nicely formatted stacktrace is kind of a mess of competing approaches. I made runnable comparisons here: https://github.com/StevenACoffman/comparerr
