One of the trends for Cypherpunks will be local-first software. Local-first does not need a backend, or if it needs it, it's a dumb storage for encrypted data, often only just for synchronization/backup. Everything needed is stored locally.

Think accounting, personal photo albums, family chats, ...

One of the developers building tooling for these paradigms is Daniel Steigerwald . I've recently spoke to him and he explained to me who local-first scales better.

No data centers, no AWS, etc.
