Description

First off: VueTorrent is really great :-)
Managing a lot of categories/tags is a bit tedious right now with the way the picker currently works. I have to scroll a very long list of entries. Also, the high scrollling offset/speed makes it easy to miss an entry and scroll past it.
When switching categories/tags I first have to deselect the current entry and then select the new one due to the multi-select feature (which is not relevant to me, but may be to others).
The current way is absolutely fine for smaller setups with only a couple of entries - it get's a little annoying when you manage hundreds of torrents with a more complex system of tags and categories.

Describe the solution you'd like

The official qBittorrent WebUI handles this well. A foldable list of entries shows all categories/tags and you can switch them with a single click. What you loose here is the multi-select feature which VueTorrent currently has. Personally I don't use it.
Implementing this in the current VueTorrent sidebar could be problematic - there's not a lot of free space and text is very large.
Personally I don't need stuff like the speed graphs, the all-time stats, current speed - at least not this large.
It's nice to look at - but also somewhat wasteful on available space.

I could also imagine a row of dropdowns for categories/tags in the top bar, where you can single-click select a category/tag.
But all this may not be within the scope of what VueTorrent wants to achieve. In any case: Thanks for reading :-)

You can disable most of those stats though 🤔

Ofc that doesn't solve your actual issue.

Thanks for your reply. It's nothing urgent :-) Just something you might consider as feedback if there ever will be a redesign of the sidebar or the category/tags pickers.
