Are there any practical uses for web3 that deserve hype? Or is that still years away?

I believe: yes.
One such case is in the DeFi world (decentralized finance). Digital currencies that are no encumbered by politics and process have saved the financial lives of many in developing countries. Places with insane hyperinflation have turned to cryptocurrencies for stability and a way to save value.
The high level use case: slowly helping tackle inequality between the developed and developing parts of the world. There are people in the Philippines that play crypto games full time because it's a legit income supplement.
There are other use cases in Gaming that I love, and while gaming isn't the solution to the world's bigger issues, it's a massive industry and web3 stuff is DEEPLY sunk in there. If nothing else, gaming will drive web3 adopting IMO
