Open source software maintenance is difficult: examples with Go math/rand/v2 and testify
PS: @Antonboom is doing an amazing work with testifylint. That is a major tool that helps Testify users to avoid v1's traps. More than a v2.

net/http extension to exchange structs
I would suggest checking out something like revive to improve the code. For instance you use an errors.New(fmt.Sprintf(... when you can just use fmt.Errorf(... to simplify it. I am not saying obey everything but there are some good lints included that can even catch bugs (for instance misusing errors.Is or errors.As or general equality).

Change Blogging my first Hacktoberfest (2021)
The day after, I talked about the Hacktoberfest to Salvador (architect colleague and my technical/career unofficial mentor). He is known for contributing to revive a Golang linter. We decided that I could contribute by solving these 3 issues (2 new rules and add a docker image to the release). Since this moment, I have been coding every available hour I had. It felt so reviving to spend time coding on new projects, rewarding to solve issues for people actually using the tool. Here are all my contributions.
