Pill Borg? Yes.
Evil Borg? No.

Should the Borg ever appear in another Star Trek series again?

I'm still curious about the biological humanoid life cycle described in Q Who. That episode made it seem like the Borg were primarily from one humanoid race, sorta like AI machines in Matrix using humans for power. I'm not sure that was ever fully contradicted, but I am sorta curious as to how that race became the primary drones of the collective, and even how a Queen came into being.
Voyager made it look like the Queen controlled/ruled the Collective, which violates the whole idea of a Collective.

The original idea was that the Borg were a single humanoid race that was born 100% biological and had implants installed almost immediately and would continue until adulthood. They were also only interested in technology, not in trying to procreate by adding other races into their collective. But that premise changed when the idea to have Picard 'assimilated' to 'speak' for the Borg evolved into them assimilating all other races to actually procreate, and that there was a 'Queen.' That idea came directly from First Contact (as the last Borg episode before that movie, "Descent," implied that the Borg renegades were still from an actual 'Borg" race.)

There is a Borg origin story in the Novelverse.
Before that came out, I wrote a short story, "The Gray People," that provided another origin story (and I think it leaned heavily on Memory Prime, although so far as I can recall, it had already been many years since I'd last read that book, when I wrote the short story, far too long for any conscious plagiarism).
I wouldn't mind seeing them again.
In fact, I'd take any Borg, complete with large scoops of eye-scream on top, before I'd ever want to see anything more about Section 31.

Could you possibly mean "Jurati Borg"? Or do you mean assimilation by swallowing something?

We've had enough Borg, thanks.
i think the kardassians are more interesting then the borg.
You know how Picard was all about the Borg? They should do shows bringing back loads of Berman Trek characters and make them ALL about the Borg. Even characters who never had anything to do with them. O'Brien show? Borg. Bashir spin-off? Borg. Kai Opaka series? Borg.
