Getting feedback is good, but you want feedback on what the product does, not how it does it.
Personally I prefer to get feedback that tells me why something I did was the wrong way as long as I also get told why and what the correct way would be. That way I can improve my software and learn something at the same time. Being told my solution is e.g elegant, is nice in the short term but less helpful in the long term
