As a rule of thumb, most people who say things like "X is useless and a waste" or "Y is revolutionary and is going to change everything by tomorrow" when the dust hasn't even begun to settle are stupid, overly-excitable, too biased towards negative outlooks, and/or trying to sell you something.

Sometimes they have some good points so you should listen to what they have to say. But that doesn't mean you have to get absorbed into their world view. Just integrate what you see as useful from your current POV and move on.
