It feels like anything is mowed down on the internet. I've been a dev for a long time too, and I never feel sure when I chose a stack for a new toy project (in my day job I rarely get to chose, so that's a non issue there)

Whenever I tested something that sounds great yet it is slow to get adoption I end learning a reason why it it's not growing. It's good to learn what the reason is before you spend a lot of time on it

No amount of reading will replace experience. At some point you will come to the place where you'll be the one who know why something that sounds good won't be and why it won't get adopted, but if you only base your decision on the opinions of others, you'll never really learn anything.
