In the same vein, what about a stellar-sized black hole like Cygnus X-1? At this size the rate of evaporation is quicker, right?

Something I like to think about is when we die, assuming there’s no afterlife, then you don’t feel the passage of time. A second or trillion of years is the same. If there’s ever a point in that future where you’d gain consciousness again somehow, then you’d feel as if you’d be there the second after you died. It doesn’t really relate to black holes but I felt like sharing the thought anyway.
The boltzmann brain hypothesis. Given enough time, a spontaneous brain, identical to yours, will form. It will experience for a short period before dying (nothing says it needs to be on a planet, or even in a body).
The weirdness of true infinities.
Wouldn’t that be considered afterlife too?
Well if time is infinite, isn’t it only a matter of time until your brain is somehow reassembled
