But then wouldn't that be objectivly true?

I don't know what "objectively true" means. How can I assign meaning to this notion?

I assign meaning to the notion of "truth" in various ways, depending on the context. As an example, when I'm discussing the weather with another person, I have a way to confirm or disconfirm statements about the weather. It's raining if water falls from the sky in small droplets. In our realm at present, this is a conventional way of dealing with truth: I "check" it using evidence from (my) sense perceptions. But it is no less subjective and volitional than any other ways of dealing with the notion of truth.

I feel like the beauty in subjective idealism is that objective truth is somewhat merged into it when you ponder on the idea more deeply. For instance, when you try to think about the subjectivity of another mind, you can only think about their subjectivity through your own subjectivity, so it cancels the other and you are only ever perceiving from yourself. No matter how "outside" of yourself you think you are getting, you are still observing from the same place, regardless of what the observer is observing.
