Colored functions is a debatable problem at best. I consider it a feature not a bug and it makes reasoning about programs easier at the expense of writing additional async/await keywords which is really a very minor annoyance.
On the other hand Go's need of using channels to do trivial and common tasks like communicating the result of an async task together with the lack of RAII and proper cleanup signaling in channels (you can very easily deadlock if nothing is attached on the other end of the channel), plus no compile time race detection - all that makes writing concurrent code harder.
