Well there's probably no version of everyone living forever. Societies will still fail. Natural disasters will still happen, not to mention wars and terrorism.

Functionally there'll still be an end-date for most "human" lives.

But there's plenty of meaning to be found in 10,000 or 100,000 years of life, without disease and death lurking around the corner every day.

> death lurking around the corner every day.

It will still be lurking around the corner and it will change your risk calculus completely. Today, if you go out and get hit by a bus, at worst, you lost 70 years of your life. In the future, you're risking 10-100k years of your life. What's worse is having to accept this risk for your loved ones.

A better question to consider would be, what would people do if they had only 1/5/10 years to live.

Sure. I’m not saying death is the sole provider of meaning, but still a major one, no matter how far we push it. As long as an inevitable end exists, we will adjust our life and actions with it.
