Rework On profile and Library

I think it would be extremely interesting to change the way the hydra profile and library work, currently there are several confusing or unintuitive things that could be improved in both, first I would like to list what is confusing in the current Ui:

Current problems:

Profile library

Achievements:

The library is very well organized, but some games don't have achievement support and this ends up being "out of place" for those who have many achievements.

Clicking on the game:

It's also confusing how when you click on a game in the "library" tab it takes you to the achievements and only takes you to the game page when you click on its logo

Quantity of games:

The library is limited to only 24 games, even if you have 30 it will always show only 24.

Side Library

The side library doesn't have much to say, it's simple and functional, the only downside is that when you have a lot of games it's hard to find them (the search function helps a lot).

Suggestions for improvement

To improve the UI and intuitiveness, I believe there are a number of solutions that would be useful, starting with a separation between the library and the profile

Profile:
The profile tab would be a page just to display user data, similar to the Xbox App profile, showing games that the user has unlocked, achievements, biography, community posts (if this feature exists in the future), friends, scores, hours played and recent games


Library: The library would have its own page, focused only on showing games, viewing achievements, creating folders such as "Played" "Favorites" "play later" and so on. As for the side library, you could keep it, but let the user choose what goes in the side library, and also add a quick play button to open the game directly from the side tab.

In general, these are the main points, obviously it would be important to study the feasibility of these features, thank you in advance for considering the idea, and I would love to see this applied to the launcher
