Right. By whatever logic we deduce that our universe is simulated, it would be just as likely that our simulators are also simulated. And from there you get simulations on to infinity and a simulation becomes as real as reality gets.
i had an idea for a skit where, we exit the simulation and can “meet god”, our simulation runners - and when I hear all about who they are and what they do, I’d ask them: “So, who created you?” and they’d all laugh and say “we don’t know”

I like that phrase. Thanks

You probably heard about the subjective idealism in philosophy. A very contrived way to avoid burden of the proof.
Alternative is, that there is no such thing and things that exist, exist. In other words, philosophical materialism.
