    Just say that something is deprecated and that using your library is the new best practice, even if it's basically the same.

    I recall a headline like that from slightly before the first industrial revolution.

    Anyway the most important inventions in the wake of the World Wide Web will be of social nature. We are connected to everyone everywhere all of the time but our methods of communication are still based heavily around personal relationships. Entirely different methods of cooperation that we can hardly imagine will emerge over the internet in the next decades.

    There is one last invention to be made:
    An artificial general intelligence (AGI).

    When a field (like computers, the internet, mobile Apps) is new, innovations are easy to make. People have plenty of ideas constantly, some are cheap to realize (you can do it on your own with basic knowledge of the field), some are expensive (you need a big team, scientific research, money, equipment and so forth), some are just impossible at the point. When the field is new, it's fun because you can easily have an idea of something new which is cheap to realize and make you famous and even rich.
    This was the case with computers in in the 80s, with the web in the 90s and 00s, and then for a small time with mobile apps. Now we reached the point where the cheapest ideas in all of those fields are only realizable with a well founded start up. Which sucks. They try to create new fields with web3 shit, vr and so on, but well...
