If we ask “why does reality exist instead of not exist?”, it’s like asking “why does existence exist instead of not exist?”. Well that’s because it’s existence. That which is or is a part of reality, is what exists. Something being a part of reality or reality itself is a sufficient condition for that thing existing. So of course reality exists, it’s the base case.
A more complicated question is “why is existence like this as apposed to some other way?”. That’s the business of physicists, and i don’t have an answer.
