vim-go with golangci-lint and revive (replacing deprecated go-lint): Confused about correct config

Question

I am having a really hard time getting vim-go to play well with golanci-lint.

golint, which was a default linter for go, has been deprecated. Most users now suggest to use revive.

While the default config of vim-go with golint was working, but printing a deprecated message on the status line, if I put revive instead, I only get

vim-go: [golangci-lint] FAIL

Ubuntu 20.04, with 8.1.2269-1ubuntu5 vim-go: v1.25

.vimrc:

  let g:go_metalinter_enabled = []

  let g:go_metalinter_command = 'golangci-lint'
  let g:go_metalinter_autosave = 1
  let g:go_metalinter_autosave_enabled = ['vet','revive','errcheck','staticcheck','unused','varcheck']
