Wolfram describes the collection of all formally describable rule based systems, leading to a complex structure he calls the Ruliad: https://writings.stephenwolfram.com/2021/11/the-concept-of-the-ruliad/ Unlike Tegmark's idea, Wolfram explains how this structure is vastly interconnected and observers within this structure observer certain regularities which are necessarily tied to the own nature of the observer (their mind and sense organs, etc.), which ultimately defines a set of regularities (the laws of physics) for that observer (or observers of that same class). I think there is more similarity between Wolfram's ideas, and those of Bruno Marchal and Markus P. Müller, which framed things algorithmically and showed how laws of physics can be extracted from the structure of all computations.
