Why would you sort the ones you're uninterested in?

I sort mine by genre, plus a couple categories that overlap with others like "Space" or "No Killing" because sometimes I get in the mood for a particular quality. I don't have an active category, instead I uninstall games that I don't see myself playing in the near future and then use the "Ready to Play" button to see the active ones. Installing games encourages me to do something else, and the limit on how long it'll be helps, "Do chores for an hour while your game installs" is a lot easier for me than just "Do chores." Ideally, I try to limit my installed games to 10 so that I think more about what I actually want to play, I'm not always disciplined about it.

I categorise them by genre, but only those I've played. Everything else is unsorted and my backlog is whatever I have installed and uncategorised.

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.

How is your early access category so small?

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.

Shooting boomers is not very nice.
