Hi, I only used Calibre to convert books but now I want to give the Kindle Collections plugin a try. I used to organize my collections manually on the K3 and it was a huge pain.

So is this the best approach for me to take?

I was planning to use Tags to create Collections as I like to use book genres for my collection headings. I have about 500 books in my Calibre library, and yesterday I used bulk metadata download on them to get tags. It resulted in 300+ tags. It looks like I have a substantial effort ahead of me to edit this list down to a manageable size before I can use it for creating collections. Is there a more efficient way to use the Plugin?
