Now THAT was a great Futurama finale

A question

To confirm, the Bender that knew how to fix the sim was from an even more outer simulation, thus proving that the 'main' universe was also a simulation?

They didn't explicitly say it but that would match the theme

need to rewatch that part but that’s what I initially assumed

Late to the party here, but yeah that was my take as well. As the inner simulation was about to burn planet express down, the professor made a comment about how catastrophic it would be given all the "doomsday" devices he has. I inferred that to mean that if all those doomsday devices went off, the outer simulation would be unable to simulate it, revealing that the "main" simulation was a simulation in itself; so outer bender came to the "main" simulation with the intention of stopping that from happening.

Oh I didn't even consider the doomsday devices, that makes a lot of sense :)

yes, they just didn't catch on or say it
