Immortality and annihilation, the meaning of choice

Episode 4 was the best episode of the Black Mirror series I've ever seen. It explores the way life continues, and before death comes, gives ordinary humans a choice - immortality or ashes. Everyone makes different choices because of the meaning of life. Before k met y, he chose eternal death. In order to pay homage to his beloved husband and daughter, when he was about to leave, he chose to live forever in San Junipero and k. Why? Will there be such a change? Because how we view the meaning of life depends on the most important things in our lives, and after k meets y, love is the meaning of two people's existence, belief, and the meaning of k's choice to continue living. If I can see you after death, what's so scary about death? The advancement of technology brings hope and warmth - this episode is like a small candle in the gray series of Black Mirror.
