Who cares what people online are saying? Most people just like to hate on the popular thing to hate because it makes them feel like they are sitting at the cool kid's table at lunch.
Obviously consider the limitations of what you're using for the project you're using it for. But do the analysis for yourself. Don't avoid something just because people don't like it.
For example Javascript gets a lot of flak online but it's one of the most popular languages and in my opinion, it's great for what it does. I prefer coding in JS over Python even if JS has those idiosyncrasies that makes it the subject of many memes online.

Modern js is pretty nice to work with but the language is very chaotic
