I've been working primarily in Go for the past five years, including some extremely complex projects, and I have never once wished I had dependency injection. It has been wonderful. I have used dependency injection - previously I worked on a C# project for years, and that used DI - but I adore Go's simplicity and I never want to use anything else (except for JS for UI, via Electron or Wails for desktop).

Edit: If we're talking about dependency injection in the general sense (separation of concerns, modularization, loose coupling), then yeah I agree that's kind of critical to writing good, maintainable software. When I hear "dependency injection" I think of frameworks such as Unity, and that is what I was specifically talking about - I am very happy with the fact that I have felt zero need to use any framework like that over the last five years.
