Staking will still be accessible to those with less than 32 ETH via pooled staking, e.g. Rocket Pool: https://www.rocketpool.net/

You can join a staking pool with as little as you have. Just like joining a mining pool with your laptop.
And you can get eth with gasless minting of nfts. Draw a picture and sell it. Don’t have to spend any money.
I much prefer this to burning up electricity which basically hands the network to energy suppliers and asic manufacturers.
Which means, whether you can stake is very dependent on your personal situation - especially geography - much like whether you can profitably mine.
Of course staking is still better than mining for many reasons. But it's a somewhat rich person's game.
