Graviton2 instances are available on AWS. They claim 40% better performance than their x86 peers - https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/m6/
Developers will become more aware of the differences between the architectures, tool chains will accommodate both better, people and software will stop assuming they are running on x86 as default. ARM won’t “win” the desktop or the server market, but it will become a viable alternative, squeezing the profits of companies who depend on x86.
