Why is Go syntax so messy (lemmy.ca)

I understand Rust being type safe, but Im seeing syntax that Ive never seen in my life in Go which looks too messy

var test int < bruh what?

:=

func(u User) hi () { ... } Where is the return type and why calling this fct doesnt require passing the u parameter but rather u.hi().

map := map[string] int {} < wtf

Ok I see, I stand corrected then. Its a misconception I had without actually going through all of this, so my bad (will edit my replies to mark them). At least in Python we can do this print(foo := (bar := 3)) but not on its own as foo := 3 .
