I don't know if there's any abstraction as wonderful as the disk->file abstraction that has enabled most modern computing.

Perhaps though the current frontier is the software->application abstraction that can be explored through public git repositories and Github "Topics".

Of course the application for this set would mirror the popular brain drains, short-form content production, video game mods/cheats/piracy, deep fakes and pranks, etc.

Just as the OS and operation of a few commercial packages you had access to in the 80s seemed limitless, so is the landscape of FOSS packages.
