I've made steam game lists for games I definitely want to play (library is huge, and I'm aware that most games I'll never get around to), and a separate list for games I've finished playing.

How are you all doing that?
HA jokes on you I'm not!
Chaos!
Not what I was hoping for, but hey, more power to you!
TabMaster with dynamic collections.
I use my digital journal to document my thoughts on games that I have played or are next in the pipeline. The notes grow organically as my thoughts form with each gameplay.
Wish I had an answer but I have to track on my main Windows PC using Launchbox since they don't have Linux support (it's built on .net, making that very hard). Someone got it working with Wine supposedly, but meh. At least steam is automatic so Deck progress is logged.
It's frustrating since they just released a bunch of useful tracking tools too.
I do this with movies in IMDB. Bookmark movies I'm meaning to watch. Rate the movies I have watched. You need to find a website or ap that let's you track games in this way. I can see there's IGDB.com, but have never tried it. This game tracking will happen on your phone and be seperate from your collection, so it doesn't matter which market or platform you use.
Game suggestions are more difficult. Sites tend to suggest sponsored content and AAA expensive suggestions. The better way to find new content is from user forums or trusted reviewers/publications.
IGDB looks interesting, but I realise I think I'd rather like something that can be run independently or has some way to export data in some manner, maybe IGDB has that. Didn't check yet. Reason being, as soon as they close their doors I have to start over. Maybe that will never happen, maybe it happens next month.
I hadn't given this any thought previously, but reading your post now that I have kids playing through my library, and that I'm constantly adding games, this would be helpful.
So for self hosted I found this: Slaanesh
And for a letterboxd feel for games I found this: Backlogged
I had seen Slaanesh before but it seems quite early in dev, so I am wondering if it is up to the task or not. Maybe I will give it a spin, it does come closest to what I have in mind, I think.
