John Wheeler is a highly respected physicist and his “it from bit” is still referenced in many papers every year. It's speculative and still not rigidly defined, but definitely not pseudoscience.

Wheeler is a fine physicist. Claiming "consciousness is fundamental to reality" is not.

I personally wouldn’t characterize it from bit that way, but it’s not as crazy as it seems.

We know that subjective reality exists because we directly experience it. But the evidence for an objective reality is shaky at best.

If it exists it isn’t anything like the classical world we inhabit - that has been proven multiple times over.

Objective reality can kill me, so I'd consider that rather less shaky than the images that appear when I sleep.
