Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I got a lot of shared boards in my board overview (all boards, left sidebar), which are shared with me through a group. To achieve a better overview, I'd like to hide some boards which I don't need anymore. Currently there are only options to delete a board, which deletes it for all users, and to archive a board, which archives it for all users. I'd like to just hide a board for my user, but to stay the same for all other users.

Describe the solution you'd like
Add a new left sidebar category "Hidden Boards", which is collapsed by default. Add an option to the three dot menu to hide/unhide a board.

Describe alternatives you've considered
A category "My Boards" in the left sidebar. But this has the downside that I'm unable to see selected shared boards.

Research direction

Begin by locating the board overview and left sidebar entry points, then trace how the three-dot board menu handles hide/unhide-related actions and how board visibility is stored per user. The work is done when a user can hide and unhide a shared board, hidden boards appear in a collapsed “Hidden Boards” category, and other users’ boards remain unchanged.
