What : A button that when toggled on would filter the list of mods to only display the "active mods".
Why : After reading the FFF (https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-391) mentionning the mod portal, and doing a research for similar proposal or related to the the mod manager, (viewtopic.php?p=578600#p578600) i thought i only want a very simple thing that may exist in parrelel to other more smarter way of managing mods that are being worked on.
Because (my) mod folder contain increasingly more mods as time passes, but the number of mod per game doesn't have to and then it becomes annoying to do simple task such as launching a game with only 3 or 4 mod active without checking against a whole list , my instinct tell me "where's the button to display active mod", it doesn't exist, instead when tired it happens i'm clicking that other button that activate all mods at the same time and instant regret it, otherwise it's a little hurdle everytime i want to share a savegame with just the required ones and i think a button with a checkmark and a tooltip saying "show only active mod" would not create clutter and be easy to understand and use for those who think they could need it, I would also welcome many of the other propositions for managing mods, this suggestion is minimalist to avoid scrolling endless list when launching a game that doesn't use all the mods from all those years.
