So the reality is that we haven't really found a new technology with our current library of superconductors, and I think that's the proof in the pudding, we're not there yet but boy is the field set for disruption. The hot application that pretty much every new paper on superconductivity will mention is superconducting qubits, and the search is for one that doesn't suffer much from decoherence, which is where spin-triplet superconductors appear to be candidates for.
I haven't kept up much with the quantum computer world this year due to covid, but at least as of last year everyone seemed to still be using Al as the superconductor instead of one of these more exotic alloys and compounds. That is what I mean by proof in the pudding, if someone can make a technology out of the material, then that's real, that's progress. Until then, most of these pieces released by university PR departments are just hype.
This is of course merely the opinion of an empiricist skeptic who finds peer review to be flawed, and that believes that the filter of time is best for determining what's real progress. Sometimes it can take us 50 years to go from discovery to application.
