> Over the past 6 years Go’s user base has grown ~10x and Go users have increased their frequency from occasional to daily usage. Impressive. How accurate is this?

I can confirm it's quite accurate. I've been the person responsible for these metrics the entire time cited.

Am I the only one who finds that type of phrasing distasteful?

I'm sure he didn't build any of those alone, and as a "leader" and a product person he probably didn't do much of the "building".

Seems like he was mostly in an advisory role for Drupal, Docker and MongoDB, he didn't exactly build them.
