I think that there are other minds similar to mine, so I am not a solipsist. But I also don't think that we have direct access to a shared reality. We are just creating dreams with somewhat isomorphic properties. Each dream is self-contained. Every brain dreams its own universe.

I agree that we are, in a sense, dreaming the way we interpret the data and that is a story. But we aren't fabricating from scratch.

We start out with some initial relevance dimensions that are primed by evolution. But the structures of meaning are entirely self-contained. The ideas you may have about other people and their beliefs are part of your individual dream, too.

For the truth, it is irrelevant if other people agree. You may be mixing up true/false and right/wrong here?

It is not intrinsically important what a bunch of chimps think about their bananas, you know.
