    It's a rather internet focused language. Even if you don't point it to github, some other packages will and you still have to point it to something (i.e. gitlab, codeberg, or your personal git server). Then what happens if those servers are no longer available?

      Go defaults to using a caching proxy, but you can use your own too.
