Solipsism As Near Nescience
If solipsism (Only my mind and its contents exist or can be known. I cannot get outside of my mind and its experiences.) is an extreme for of subjective idealism (The point made that though our mind and its contents are all that exist.), then Berkeley still believes that other minds exist with their contents and perceptions within the uiversal mind of God.
If solipsism is one's worldview, one is very skeptical about the existence of others and objective reality, that they exist or not or that such could be proven or disproven or not.
Pure nescience would be to posit that the self does not exist, and one cannot exist, enjoy, posess or express in words or ideas the content of one's experience. This pure nescience is a pure nihilism and it is also pure skepticism.
