Why people in Google hate Go?
Except when you actually enjoy things being fast. For example, HTTPie easily adds 0.5-1s delay to every request because it's written in Python, especially on the first invocation. xh (https://github.com/ducaale/xh), on the other hand, starts immediately because it's written in Rust. I very much like this trend.

HTTPie is great and was a big improvement for me over cURL.
However, I ended up switching to xh[1] as it's significantly faster and I prefer its output.

No, but unless portability is a concern or you're massively familiar with curl, you might want to consider xh. It's much more intuitive.
