I always found that more frightening than total extinction. I can't imagine all humans blinking out in a few hours. I can imagine having no food or money, trying to work dangerous odd jobs here and there and starving to death along with 30% of my town during a winter famine a few years later.

Think of life outside the Western world for a bit. This was the case for most of colonised Asia, and is still is a thing for some places in Africa.
