objective reality is the aggregate of all physical measurements that we perform
this objective reality is a shared reality
our subjective realities only exist at the informational vortex riding around on our shoulders

each of us is having our own unique experience seeded from the data layer which we consume with our senses
for all of the evidence suggests that nature has gone on following its laws without need of observers
When we come to observe it, we don't hear any sudden scurrying as it pops into existence. It's got a history. It has been doing its thing since before we understood the rules or even observed the effects of those rules without understanding.
It doesn't seem to need observers. Unless, perhaps we argue for non-human observers who have been around for much longer than we have.
I don't mean that there is nothing outside of us, just that it doesn't look like anything like what we think of as "the real world". There is no "red" chair, there is no "hard", or "smooth" surface because these are internal experiences synthesized by our minds
So there may be something external to us, but the only objective way to describe it is through mathematics, because the other ways that we describe it are our own creations, our own hallucinations that each of us independently creates every second of every day
what i mean is the dream or hallucination we experience that we typically associate with the external world: colors, sound, touch
