Personally I'd be in favor of booty bumps.

I propose we all 'flip the bird' to one another. Done only with one middle-finger up we'll collectively agree to presume it's a substitute for the handshake. Done with both middle-fingers up, it can mean what it usually means. Plus, it'll be extra funny for a generation.

Cutting off all physical contact from other people is not good.

It’s understandable in the current situation which is temporary but under normal conditions having contact with lots of people (and germs) is actually good for you as it builds up your natural immunity to harmful pathogens and helps colonize and a maintain healthy gut microbiome.

What if you're holding something in one hand, though?

I'm thinking the hokey-pokey.

It's quite clear and shows definitive intent. It could replace handshakes more effectively than alternatives that have been proposed.
