    I have an “immediate backlog” of 5 games, about 30 in my “primary backlog,” and about 60 in my “backlog.” I promote or demote based on vibe and try to play 1 game at a time. I also have a tight curation of favorites and Steam Deck bangers.

    Guess I’m kinda normal. I just install what I wanna play, filter by playable and store by last played.

    I just have unplayed, installed locally, and good games.

    I often forget to update the good games folder so it’s iffy as to whether or not all of my good games are in there yet at any given time.

    I don’t use categories, but I do keep a tab open with this loaded with my Steam ID. It uses all the tags games have on Steam so you can see if you have a 2D Sci-Fi Souls-like if you want.

    My list is just my entire list, sorted by installed and recent. No folders, no organisation, just a very long list

    I dont have this many lists. I keep mine as finished, currently playing, broken and then some dynamic lists based on category such as rougelike, horror etc

    Steam user since the early days, and no categories here. Why bother. Thousands of games, too much work.

    Same thing with profiles, like what do I need that shit for?

    Edit: I do want to say, I admire your organization.

    … New Years resolution to say something nice a lot more often, we call could use it …

        Oh I know they exist… I have thousands of games. Category: games.

      Same here. I do use 2 dynamic collections: Installed Locally and Full Controller Support. That’s basically just to make it easier to pick stuff to play from the couch.

      Otherwise it’s all in one big bucket, but it’s a searchable bucket, so that’s fine.

    It would be cool to see an export of that game list by category.

    Dunno if steam has any way of doing that

    I think that’s part of why you have a backlog.

    In all seriousness though, I have a couple lists for like “Workshop” and “Souls like,” otherwise it’s just sorted by what’s installed and most recent.

    I do have a favorites list though.

    Thats a lot of categories. I’ve got “current”, “Done with”, “never again” and the uncategorized, since functionally that is my backlog.

    I actually like that… Mostly I have categories for genres, publishers, and planning for playing (not like I actually follow it…) but I like some of yours and will probably adopt them
