Multiple other Red states have gerrymandered or are in the process of gerrymandering in preparation for the 2026 midterm elections:
Missouri, North Carolina, Utah, Indiana, Virgina, Louisiana, Ohio, Kansas
California's likely redistricting will be more than counteracted in 2026.
Other Blue states besides California are behind the game, and are planning, along with more Red states, for mid-decade redistricting:

Most red states have gerrymandered the shit out of their districts so they're not gonna be able to squeeze that many more seats. Blue states have a much better chance of counteracting those votes if they all do their own gerrymandering however.
I hope you're right...
