Modrinth App

Is your suggested feature related to a problem? Please describe.

As modpacks grow in size it can be difficult to remain organized. The recently added Alphabetical and Newest/Oldest search filters are helpful but still very basic.

Describe the solution you'd like

I think it'd be very helpful to have a section within the open space (next to the already existing filters) that allows the user to filter mods by their tags. This would make it a lot easier to search through groups of mods, in particular dependencies and performance mods (utility), and overall streamline mod management. The tags could also include "Supported Environments" so users could filter their mods by client-side, server-side, and both.

I also think there should be an "Include" and "Exclude" button, or perhaps toggle switch, to allow searching through multiple tags at a time or blacklisting certain tags from appearing, depending on the user's intent.

To go along with another feature request, tags could be displayed in the menu next to their respective mod in some of the empty space that's available. Apologies for the crude representation:

Describe alternatives you've considered

No response

Additional context

If the filters start to feel cluttered they could always be consolidated into one drop-down menu accessed by clicking the filter icon on the left. If this were the case you could add some simple text, such as "Filters", to make the button more noticeable.
