Money is not free, the cost of money has gone up considerably in the past 6 months. I haven't seen any indications that money will be cheaper anytime soon.

All "VC funded" "free tier" and the like will be put on the back-burner. If you know anyone with a small datacenter and a decent peering agreement (3 lines of at least gbit) now would be the time to kick money their way, and tell everyone else to.

It was tough times for small companies these past several years. Imagine trying to compete with netflix when their price was "all you (and everyone you know) can eat MP4s for $8". I actually cancelled my netflix subscription as we weren't using it anymore and the price was creeping up faster than siriusXM subscriptions.

I know this is edgelord to post on a VC forum, but I haven't seen any indication i am wrong yet. Big news is 80,000-120,000 tech workers being laid off by the big 10, but what about all of the layoffs at smaller companies that are VC funded? What's that number look like?
