How do you select all objects that are of similar type in object mode, say for example selecting all the instnaces of text objects. Or selecting only the meshes.

Object mode has a menu in the header called Select that, when expanded, has a submenu Select All by Type:

⇧ ShiftL (Instances) or ⇧ ShiftG gives me all the options I use to select multiple objects.

Organising collections and naming conventions, and the same textures make this even easier with many options to select similar objects.
