"Quantum immortality" is magical thinking for people that aren't comfortable with their own mortality. It's functionally no different than belief in an afterlife.

That is not true. Quantum immortality does not mean you will live forever. It means that whenever there's a non-zero chance of surviving something, you will do so. At one point you will die in all conceivable universes, at which point your consciousness is finally gone.
