I have read little Hegel, but I like the idea that he did have a response to solipsism.

1Some take the master-slave dialectic from Phenomenology of Spirit as a refutation of solipsism, see e.g. Hesiod's corner:"Self-consciousness exists in and for itself when, and by the fact that, it also exists for another, that is to say, it is only by being acknowledged or “recognized”".– ConifoldJun 27, 2020 at 0:20

an interesting read thanks @Conifold though starting with "Apart from the preface, and other famous sections within the Phenomenology of Spirit, the most famous section of Hegel’s Phenomenology is" makes it seem a little untrustworthy... no-one wants to answer the question with references?– user46524Jun 28, 2020 at 6:24
