It it’s flat then how is it possible for the sun to be below the horizon for me, but still above the horizon for someone else in a different part of the world

Light doesn‘t go on forever. Inverse square law.

The inverse square law makes things dimmer. It doesn't make it appear to be in two different positions for two different observers.
Here's a diagram of what I'm talking about: https://files.catbox.moe/b804ni.png
As you can see, on the flat earth model, it looks like there are two different suns. One of them is only visible to observer 1, and one of them is only visible to observer 2. It just doesn't make sense to me, and the inverse square law doesn't seem to fix it.
As you can see at the bottom of the diagram, a globe earth model does fix it. Only one sun is necessary.

Because the sun isn't millions of miles away.

Can you draw me a diagram of this? I'm not getting it.
Here's my attempt to diagram it: https://files.catbox.moe/b804ni.png
As you can see, the problem that I have with the flat earth model is that the two observers see the sun as being in a very different direction. No matter how far away the sun is, those sight lines from observer 1 vs. observer 2 never converge. There's no way (that I can imagine) to make this work without having two different suns.
...or (as I show at the bottom) using a globe earth model. With a globe earth model, it's easy to understand how why one of them sees the sun above the horizon and the other one doesn't.
