I was playing this game too much, with complex system which never actually encouraged me to play any of the games I have categorized (and I had similar system as OP). Please dear fellow gamers - don't fall into same trap =)
Now I have only 4:
- WTP - want to play games, be them new or on repeat.
- VR - same as WTP, but for VR.
- Done - for games which are finished, but I have a feeling that I would like to recall them several years later.
- Done-done - for games which I'm not going to ever play again. Either bad games, or which have fully fulfilled their purpose and there is nothing to do anymore.
I use recent sorting, which help a lot to mitigate any kind of lock on what to play today. It's more like recommendation
I am trying to free myself from finishing games 100% and avoid all side/boring activities, also now I'm free to pick whichever game I want, instead of planned (like work) consumption with previous system.
It has really brighten my playtime, now it feels more like joy than before.
I tried steam link for several games in last weeks and it seems that black screen issue exists in quite some of them. My case is Nvidia on Wayland and it seems to me that could be a culprit in my case. If it's the case for you, too - try xorg first.
Sorry, can't help you, but interested in solution, too.
