Classify the lists on the list wall

(closed account) says:
I now have ore than 100 lists and then have issue to easely find a specific list. Some lists are for Work projects, some for personnal projects and some just are list of stuffs or even ideas. I then renamed all my lists according to 5 criterias and I start teh list name with one indicator:
- br: for work (bureau in french). B allow me to ensure that the Work list appears first. for ex: br-achieve project x
- ex: for personnal list (exclusive to me). ex- then those lists appear in second, for ex: ex-buy a new bicycle
- gw: for the list for my famille (g is the 1st letter of my wife name, and w is mine: for ex: gw-organise birthday
- id: for list concerning ideas - some will required to be reviewed regularly: idea of TV film to watch, books, what to visit
- in: for information list: list of stuff stored in my garage, of stuff I lend of rent ...

Inside a list I am trying to keep only "first actions"

This allow a more clear view on my lists now

In order to reduce the number of lists you could use tags instead, maybe with the same syntax. Then you could use smart list, with the criteria tagContains:"br:" for work related tasks for example.
