Feature request: Hide system fonts

I spend sooooo much time trying out fonts and adding new ones and the font menus in ALL of the Adobe products are impossible to navigate with all of the system fonts that show up. They slow me down every single time I need to change the font. There needs to be a simple way to hide all of the Noto and other language fonts that Apple installs (regardless of their necessity).

 

And I've discovered that many of their own fonts conflict with each other. I had to turn off auto-activation, because the apps would launch adobe versions before using my local copies.

I do not disagree, but in the Character panel there are a lot of options to filter and in the latest Illustrator version you can create custom font libraries.

 

Currently not perfect, but promising as far as I can see.
