PS What's "Idle"?

Your list is great as well, and I definitely have your back 🔪

I didn't know about these until maybe six months ago, but its a game where you collect achievements for leaving it running on steam I guess? Some have things where you just kind of click and grind things but I've never really played one so not entirely sure this is correct.
