First, it seems gratuitous to restrict your search to "created so far in the 21st century". I suppose that allows you to eliminate Java, which is extremely successful and was created a bit before the 21st century. Second, I'll ask for a source supporting your statement. I looked for one and the first result I got is this: https://pypl.github.io/PYPL.html ... which seems to suggest that Go is less popular than Swift, TypeScript, or even the relatively obscure Kotlin language. It's also behind C# and Objective-C, and the former can probably be considered a 21st century language. My conclusion from this is that Go's popularity is mostly visible in a few restricted circles of computing, and in those it doesn't seem to fare that much better than Rust, either. But focussing on those two languages shows a certain selection bias.
