Call from Mark

Yes, that Mark. And yes—we said no.

It really happened.
Mark Zuckerberg called us.
Not a bot. Not a prank. The real deal.

He’d heard about Drop Reality.
DRObs. Miniapps. Products as platforms.
He got it.
He saw the vision.
He liked what we’re building.

And we listened.
We smiled.
And we said:
No.

No, we’re not interested in wrapping Drop Reality inside another social network.
No, we’re not turning this into just another engagement layer.
No, we’re not here to boost retention rates for anyone else’s platform.

Because Drop Reality isn’t made to fit in.
It’s made to break out.

We’re not building inside Meta.
We’re building in the real world.
On bottles, sneakers, books, toys, cosmetics.
Where people actually live, connect, and feel.

Drop Reality isn’t a feature.
It’s not a filter.
It’s not a story you can swipe past.

It’s the next internet layer.
It lives in the physical world.
And it belongs to the people who create it, scan it, love it.

So yes—Mark called.
And yes—it was tempting.
But the future we’re building doesn’t need a gatekeeper.

It needs believers.

Thanks for the call, Mark.
But we’re already home.
