There is little doubt that FT8 is a very big thing.
On 6m FT8 this morning I have spotted well over 50 different stations already. QSOs (albeit basic) are fast and all the activity is concentrated in a few kilohertz on each band. It works with weaker signals than CW or SSB.
What I fear is people will desert SSB and CW and use FT8 instead. A casual tune across bands might lead some to think the band is dead.
