For me, it's obvious that there will be at least a season 4. Don't think the show can continue for multiple seasons as is, but if some company decides to take a crack at making the show for many years to come, maybe it happens via a spin-off of some sort?
Season 4 prediction:
Other than the deaths of Billy/Alexei, the destruction of the mall and the Mayor being removed from office, there was really no other conclusion or closure in the storyline -- the Mind Flayer is still not defeated, the Soviets are still experimenting with the "otherworld", the origins of which continue to be a mystery, etc. This season took most of the characters (Mike and Lucas didn't do much, for example) to different paths of character development that carried out all the way throughout the season, will be interesting to see what the payoff will be, especially in the setting where the Byers family and the now-powerless Eleven move away from Hawkins.
Way too many memorable moments from this season, but the Steve/Robyn/Dustin/Erica plotline and the scene of Will destroying Castle Byers stand out to me the most. The latter part was probably one of the most powerful scenes of the season for me, really represents the theme of how the show is transitioning away from the childhood and into the early adulthood of the main kids.
Billy ended up being such an incredible and complex character. From a minor villain with a comic relief side story, to a possessed psycho main villain with a tragic backstory, to ultimately getting a bit of redemption in the end. The actor had to play so many different aspects of Billy, and IMO did so extremely well.

Season 4 prediction:
Alexei mentioned that the Soviets were experimenting with the technology on their own soil, but later moved to Hawkins because it was easier/faster to open a gate there. What if Hopper escaped the explosion by jumping into the closing gate and later crawled out in the USSR during one of their gate opening experiments? It would explain how the Soviets ended up having an American prisoner, and why said prisoner was valuable enough to not be fed to a Demogorgon (which they would've captured during their earlier experiments with gates).
Also -- if Hopper indeed got inside the gate, what are the odds that the Mind Flayer (or one of the facehugging minions) got to him? Maybe something crawled up inside him, allowing the Mind Flayer to help him escape the Soviet facility, so that he can use Hopper as a puppet in his next gate opening scheme?
