It is logical to expect that Star Trek: Lower Decks could be picked up by another streaming service in the same way Netflix saved Star Trek: Prodigy. It would make sense for Netflix, in particular, to adopt Star Trek: Lower Decks to allow them to produce more episodes. This would allow Netflix to dominate the modern product market Star Trek animated series. However, just as Netflix did not renew Star Trek: Prodigy for season 3, there is no known movement towards Star Trek: Lower Decks hopping over to Netflix.

A #SaveLowerDecks campaign began when it became known Star Trek: Lower Decks Season 5 was the final season for Paramount+, but the fan movement never caught fire along the way Prodigyhe did.

Starfleet Academy takes place in the 32nd century, after the end of the Star Trek: Discoverybut holograms, flashbacks or other science fiction means could bring back any Star Trek character. Mike McMahan also reflected on his live-action dream Star Trek: Lower Decksand perhaps this could be the next phase of the USS Cerritos someday.
