As the person who brought up many worlds in the first place. It's not necessary for a "Non deterministic universe" but is necessary for the chaos of quantum mechanics to contain something humans would recognize as choice.

enh, there are other options, like in a simulation scenario where your body is hardware, your mind is software, and your free will is user input but really choice is just a post hoc quale of the part of your mind that exists to come up with a plausible story for the cops

More simply, pansychism is true. What we perceive physically as random events are tiny minds making decisions based on tiny amounts of information in the form of sensation.

If panpsychism is true, are we all a part of the same mind?

yes, and also part of a finite but very large number of same and different minds at a finite but very large number of scales

my best guess isn't actually that panpsychism is true but i'm not prepared to dismiss it with prejudice

What do you personally think is most likely to be true?

oh, fuck, honestly in my heart of hearts i'm a simulationist, for the exact same reason that if you ask a shoemaker about God he'll tell you about how God is a shoemaker. that's, like, a plurality of my opinion by a thin margin though

If we're simulations, what happens when we die?

fucked if i know. likely nothing interesting. in the interesting territory, there are a lot of options, most of them identical with the non-simulation scenarios. the distinct interesting options are things like "GAME OVER. PLAY AGAIN?"

it's also worth noting that considered from some angles simulationism is a form of panpsychism
