Feedback needed from first low-level language learners of Rust
I wrote a fairly long post on how it happened for me. Starts out with how Logo turned me off programming as a child and a bunch of other stuff, and the part that relates to learning Rust as a first language starts at the "That was when I gave Rust a try for the first time" part.

Should I learn another language?
I have a blog post on that given how rare it is, but the tl;dr of it is that Rust completely cured my wanderlust for other languages and the more I saw if it the more I wanted to see. With other languages I just found myself wondering if it was really the best use of my time and whether I should be learning another one instead.

As my first programming language, should I learn Rust? I have zero programming or computer science experience.
Too late! I already did it as my first language.
-
Is this a good resource to learn Rust?
Indeed I can - I wrote a whole post about it. The key takeway is that it was the perfect first language for me because it was the first language where I never felt wanderlust for others while learning.

People who learned rust as their first language, what made you choose it?
It's my first language (unless you include Basic in the 80s) because it's the only one where I didn't feel wanderlust for any other languages after I discovered it. I had tried like 10 others and kept switching, only learning the basics. I wrote a long post on the experience here.

Good Books for a GO Beginner in 2023/24
Go never changed as much as Java does in each major release, so old books are still relevant. https://www.gopl.io/ is fine if you read about generics and some new standard library modules somewhere else later.

Is go worth studying as first language?
The GOPL book is good one to start with, if you prefer reading books. https://www.gopl.io/

Does anyone have any good resources to practice channel, context, and goroutine?
Not that they are leet code style, but some exercises from "The Go Programming Language" are really worth having a look at, also most solutions are available at https://github.com/adonovan/gopl.io

is go still simple?
What part(s) are you struggling with and how are you learning? The Go Programming Language is slightly outdated but is an excellent intro. You can read the first chapter free. Also the resources on https://go.dev/learn/ are great. If I were you, I would come up with an idea you're excited about and build it.

Learning about concurrency
For a deeper dive, I’d recommend The Go Programming Language - a fantastic resource covering a broader landscape of the language than just concurrency.
-
If you want to learn Golang - please go through "Go Programming Language" by Brian Kernighan and Alan Donovan
"Low-level programming" is chapter 13, both in the version I have and on https://www.gopl.io/ -- the rest is all somewhat crucial stuff, except for maybe reflection.
