Why won’t QR Codes ever run out of existence?

Like won’t all the possible configurations get used at some point of time or do they get recycled?

QR codes are more or less just a different way to represent text.

There a re a few different schema, but mostly a QR-code is used to print out a compute-readable way to write down something like an URL.

The largest QR-Codes with least amount of redundancy tops out at a few bytes under 3KB of content.

This is far from infinite, but on the other hand, close enough to never runs out for practical purposes.
