I went on the website and thought: "Wow, this is great. I really like. Maybe I could use it for my next project." Then I came to the HN comment section, read only negative comments and now I do not want to use it anymore. Sad saturated world.

Don't let HNers dictate what you use, this is a very special audience and the overlap with the vast majority of the population is very small. Don't get me wrong, I hate these smooth-scrolling things and I wish Google would penalize it, but it won't matter to the majority of people, and they might actually find it neat.

If your project isn't targeting this very niche audience, include it. Add a cat that chases the cursor. Have a loading animation that assembles the site from blocks. Be bold and brave and enjoy yourself.
