theory: the number of apps competing for peoples attention will only accelerate from here. you can’t launch mid things anymore. It will have to be exceptional and mind blowing.

Or a shovel. Everyone has at least one shovel.
I think it will also open up solving of “smaller” problems. As in, apps that don’t scale to a billion dollars, but solve real problems for real people and provide a decent living for those who make them.
loyal users are the new gold. there will be so many apps without loyal users, that even a few loyal users will put an app in the 1%.
Slop will have a consequences. Low quality sprawl will backfire. People will paint themselves in to corners and bite off more than they can chew. There will be blowback. Even more: the AI security disaster hasn't really begun.
