Hello,
I have been researching about blockchains and stuff and it all seems like a big scam. It’s not sustainable and can be replaced by a simple database.
is there any legitimate use cases of blockchains or it is all just a big scam?

That’s one definition of blockchain. Since the solution to the Byzantine Generals’ problem in Bitcoin is done by Proof of Work it can’t be said to be a part of the blockchain definition since there are many (most?) blockchains that don’t use PoW. Some companies peddling “blockchain solutions” even use central authorities.
So, with “blockchain” just being a chain of cryptographically verified blocks then git indeed fulfills that definition.
