This is an umbrella issue to keep track of issues related to redirecting traffic from godoc.org to pkg.go.dev.

Issues related to this topic:

At the moment, our priority is to work towards open sourcing (#36747) and to address design feedback. We will plan to address the issues above before redirecting traffic from godoc.org to pkg.go.dev.

Sounds fantastic @julieqiu and it's really awesome how much the feedback is being taken into account on this.

A suggestion I have on the redirect is to do it a little like Go Modules: first opt-in, then opt-out, then full switchover. Right now you have the ability to opt-in to always redirect using a cookie, so for the next stage you could redirect unless a specific cookie is set.

I think this would be a very gentle way of going about it, and might spark a final round of useful feedback as the whole community adapts to the change (while still being able to browse the legacy version).

If the percentage of traffic opting-in to the redirect is very high, this suggestion may be unnecessary, but I wanted to throw it out there.

That's great suggestion - thanks @tooolbox! We'll definitely consider doing something like that, once we get closer to being ready to redirect godoc.org traffic.

Closing this issue in favor of using milestone pkgsite/godoc.org-redirect.
