A sidenote: VapourSynth is just a Python module so you'll basically have to learn at least some Python basics to do anything more advanced.

I guess time will tell.
The real question is gonna be whether youngsters will pickup Avisynth or VapourSynth.
The reason why I'm saying this is that young people are almost definitely already familiar with some sort of Python scripting so going to VapourSynth would probably make things easier.
I think a lot of people here using Avisynth were around long before VapourSynth was a thing (me included).
Avisynth was born in 2000 and I started doing encoding stuff in June 2006.
On the other hand, if I'm not mistaken, VapourSynth became a thing in 2012 and by then Avisynth was already heavily cemented in the industry among professionals (streaming platforms first like Crunchyroll, Viewster etc and a few broadcasters too), among fansubbers (literally any of the thousands of fansubbing groups were using Avisynth) and also among home users (with a very active community on both Doom9 and videohelp).
For most of us it didn't make sense to move to VapourSynth and learn everything all over again.
I guess the future will tell as time goes on and more youngsters come by...

From what I can see, a lot of Vapoursynth plugin development has died which is not a good thing. For example, MVTools is quite a long way behind the Avisynth version and that one is probably the most generic advanced plugin there is for various needs.

A succinct/compact intro to Python language. [EDIT: You are expected to be familiar with some other programming language]
Learn X in Y minutes: Where X=Python:- https://learnxinyminutes.com/docs/python/

EDIT: Above link for Python 3, near top has link to Python 2.7.
Looks like VS is Python 3.
