Most people find golem to be really easy for how late you fight them.

He’s a complete pushover, and the only attack he has that’s remotely a threat is his laser spam

This is it for me.
Normally, you do one boss and then prepare for the next by upping weapons and armour, but after killing Plantera I usually just go straight to the temple and deal with Golem immediately.
Plus, if you have the right weapon, it's usually possible to find a place where you're fairly protected but you can damage him. Scourge of the corruptor is a good weapon for that, especially with flask of ichor.

Golem is more of a meme then "Grrrrr dis trabsh", Golem is easy not unlovable.

Golem is a complete and utter joke and entirely a pushover, but I do find him fun to fight even if he poses exactly zero challenge. Something about weaving under his body as he jumps and knocking back his fists feels awesome.

"The Idol" "The Statue"Kind of wish golem had a more interesting name tbh. He's not even the only Golem in the game

For how much effort they put into naming weapoms, it feels like they don’t put as much into naming enemies and bosses. Golem, Wall of Flesh, Queen Bee, Martian Saucer, etc.Kind of wish golem had a more interesting name tbh. He's not even the only Golem in the game

Necessity, I guess. When you have that many weapons you're gonna have to get creative lol.

Perhaps there's a commonly known strategy behind fighting Golem that I'm completely unaware of, but I suspect also, most players haven't been unlucky enough to have the Jungle Temple spawn a very tiny Arena to fight him in. Seeing as how the Alter exploit has been removed, I've never really considered Golem to be a total pushover, just one of those Boss fights where, you get lucky or you don't.
I wouldn't claim 'im to be a tougher Boss than Plantera, but... under certain circumstances, he could be. Overall, I suspect he's mostly a gimmick Boss, where a LOT of the tricks that are supposed to make him "difficult" are too well-known to matter anymore; like for example, if players tried Summoning Golem without disabling the traps in his arena (which requires veteran knowledge, or some kind of strategy guide), the fight would likely feel much different.

Golem should be harder then planter and the lizards should at least have a grenades to throw and I think golem's metal Golem or rock metal Golem.

You can actuate the lihzahrd brick to expand the arena and it's not hard to do with something like the Grand Design.
