I don't mind the churn, adopting new tech can be its own form of personal enjoyment.
What I dislike is the hype, people with sizeable bases acting irresponsibly about new tech. Encouraging early adoption, and spending so much time promoting it, funding conferences, and then after 5 years dumping all of it so you can "learn from your mistakes" to push for some new thing. It feels so dishonest, why would their current choice be any better if they made such reckless decisions not too long ago?
So you're right we really do need to think critically about new tech and give people the means to assess things critically without the hype.
