Extremely Large Numbers
I know this has been done before, but lately I have been interested in some pretty huge numbers. I would like to see some community input on big numbers, as I am attempting to make my own large number notation.When I say “Large” numbers, I mean like Graham's Number, Tree(3), etc. not looking for numbers like 1,000,000 or even Centillion (10^303).

if we're talking about ordinals, then ω
if cardinals then idk

From the googology wiki? That should be the largest number, if it has been proven to exist yet. How about Oblivion?

Plutonia's ageHow about a Googleplexplex? (I don't even know if that's a real thing or if that's the proper name but let's go with it
Googleplex

10^(10^(10^100))

Utter oblivion is the largest number yet, but I’m going to propose utter^oblivion oblivion. Utter^2 oblivion would be just utter oblivion, but with the oblivions in the definition replaced with utter oblivions. Utter^3 would be utter^2 oblivion instead of utter oblivion, and so on. That’s the only way I can think of to make a “noticeable” difference to the number.

GoogolplexianPlutonia's ageHow about a Googleplexplex? (I don't even know if that's a real thing or if that's the proper name but let's go with it
Googleplex)
10^(10^(10^100))
. It is pretty large, it's 1 with googolplex 0's

The ackermann function can produce extremely large numbers.
Something as basic as A(4,3) produces a value of 2^(2^65536)-3.
Take an even slightly larger example, such as:
A(6,6), which is: 2↑↑↑↑9-3
(using Knuth's Arrow notation, as the number would otherwise be too big)
Imagine something like A(100,100)
Truly a large number.

I heard that you can't write a googleplex because there isn't enough graphite in the universe to make enough pencils to write all the zeroes.

infinity?
Infinity is technically not a real number because there are different levels of infinity, which means that infinity divided by infinity does not always equal 1

The number zero divided by any number.

do you mean any number divided by zero? The number zero divided by any number.
