Just make your own meaning for living, as there isn’t any at birth. It’s another form of nihilism, reframed in a more optimistic? manner, but it’s still somewhat nihilistic.
If all mistakes are "remedied" in the end, why not maximize pleasure now? The alternative of making everyone depressed is far worse. In a way, you don’t actually need to be void. Humans have near-total freedom to do whatever they want within the system of mankind. Void is peace, but peace is a feeling, and feelings require an alive entity to feel it. In the end, the universe won't judge us, but that is also somewhat relieving.
Recognizes the human nature of wanting agency to set his or her own values instead of coercion into doing or "valuing" things he or she does not want.
However, one flaw of this is that: Wait, if I take away your meaning, I have taken away the meaning of life, but why have you still not reached Death, the lack of the meaning to live? It might be the difference between the physical state of living and the goal of the activities you do once you are beyond basic survival needs.
Later I realized that people adopting this philosophy might not have much subjective judgement that they themselves have meaning to begin with. "Find your own" might not be feasible. They will then experience a cognitive dissonance their lack of meaning is "wrong". The solution might actually be nihilism: sometimes the brain feels it, and the feeling itself is real if it actually happens, and shouldn't be "deflected" or stigmatized as we are very complex creatures dealying with lots of problems that our kind caused too.
