Separate setting for a private wishlist
I would like to keep my wishlist private, but retain the other game-related info visible by 'friends-only'. So far it comes as a bundle and can't be separated.
I know it may sound as a small and not too important detail, but I would appreciate having an option to do that and I believe it wouldn't require too much work to implement, especially compared to some other improvements that Steam comes up with on a ruglar basis.

:steambored:Specifically:steambored::
There is a particular setting for the profile management under 'privacy tab', called 'Game details' which is described as:
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.

I would like to keep literally all of these things visible to my friends, except the games I add to my wishlist.

I also do not want people to see that I wish listed games with nudity, lol.

Don't expose me lol

Seriously though, having over 1k, most random games on my wishlist is probably just as questionable, but I'm glad that at least you agree :papyrus:

I would prefer to split wishlist to 2 tabs: 1st for games you would buy, 2nd for games you would by and would be happy to recieve as a gift.

I wouldn't mind being able to categorize games from wishlist into seperate groups, especially because the current way of "custom order" organising them is terrible and clunky at best, but that doesn't really fix my original request.

Although I gotta admit that being able to have one wishlist for the games I want to play first and foremost and then another wishlist for the games that I felt looked kinda interesting when I added them and might buy them eventually once there's nothing left on my main wishlist (instead of having to scroll through all of them just to find my favorite ones) would be kinda convenient.

Being able to narrow it down for your friends to know which one you would prefer as a gift is also valid point, but I'd hope it gets added along with an option to private the wishlist and not instead of it, if they actually decide to implement it. :flowey:

I didn't mention it, but I meant that whishlist "not for gifts" to be optionally hidden from your friends.
