steam
I do NOT want to hide games marked by those tags. I want to hide the tags themselves.
Some tags are too broad in my opinion and appear on many hardly related games. Some cover distinction I will hardly ever care about. But being popular, they push out of view other tags that I'd like to see – at least in discovery queue, but maybe in other places in UI too.
So, can I somehow hide some tags to give way for other tags to display?
Since a recent update, you can now set it so that only your friends, or no-one can see what you're playing.
Go to the Steam community settings page here, it can be found at that link or as this answer states, on Steam go to Profile > Edit Profile > My Privacy Settings > Game details
At Game Details you can choose between public, friends only or private.
This category includes the list of all games on your Steam account, games you’ve wishlisted, your achievements and your playtime. This setting also controls whether you’re seen as "in-game" and the title of the game you are playing.
It's not an ideal solution, but you can hide your public activity by setting your profile to private. Note that your previously posted activity may remain in your friends' feeds. (Thanks to OP for testing this.)
