When developing API's in Golang or for microservice / serverless architectures not using a framework might actually make a lot of sense. Also microframeworks (trimmed-down versions compared to opinionated frameworks) are very popular in almost any language.

I'd say that Golang rather comes with a (simple) framework in the standard library, so you don't need a third-party one. After all, http.Handle/HandleFunc clearly follow the Hollywood Principle: http://wiki.c2.com/?HollywoodPrinciple

There are such things as micro-ORM as well, btw. Still an ORM though.
