If f-droid doesn't expect to survive I think the whole stack /e/OS relies on might eventually collapse (microg, lineage, ...).
I dunno how viable it is, but linux phones with waydroid is a thing
Also, I'd imagine that a small pocket of custom ROM amd root folks will still exist
Come hell or high water, i will retain control of my phone
