I'm wondering if the "small web" will start to take over. I already feel like signal chats are starting to replace social media for me. Maybe soon we'll be torrenting old copies of Wikipedia off hidden sites and only sharing our thoughts on privately hosted and shared Gemini capsule blogs? We'll have to bring back key-signing parties and friends-of-friends networking.
