Would it be possible to implement a feature to show all games on the platform that are waiting for players? Sometimes I just want to come on here to play a game and I'm not too particular about which one. I think it would be super helpful to just see a list of games that are waiting for players, rather than jumping from game title to game title just hoping someone wants to play that particular title at the same time I do.

There's an existing feature that is close to what you are asking.
If you go to the Play Now link at the top of the page (
https://boardgamearena.com/lobby), you should see a selection of favourite games. You can add more favourite games by searching and clicking on the yellow heart with a plus sign.
Right below the favourite games listing, there is a tab that says "See all available tables". If you click that, it gives you more or less what you were asking for.

Can't find your " see all available tables" do you have a screenshot?

Here is a
link to a screen capture showing the "Show all available tables" link on the Play Now lobby page. I tried hotlinking the image, but it didn't work.

To have this view just go on the "PLAY NOW" page and in the third combobox choose MANUAL (not AUTOMATIC or FRIENDS)

Thanks! That was my mistake...
