Go to Generics = Go to hell? What I experienced after Generics Introduced into Go

Go 1.18 brought Generics. When we heard this official announcement initially, we thought we could finally write Go programs quickly and run them efficiently. But after one year, the characteristics of Generics suffer us in many ways. It doesn't become Swiss knife as we think. So I will share some experiences of using Generics, point out what is going on in the design of Generics, show how to use Generics well, and when to apply Generics.
