Hmmm… wonder why players are leaving..
DICE crapped down the throats of BF veterans with all the tiny COD boi maps, BR bull crap, and other non BF game modes. Then they linked challenges, Battlepass and skins that require these crap game...

First of all, they are community servers. "Portal server" has negative connotations because there was a lot of garbage created. All community servers are published through the portal website, yes, but not all of them are customized in any way. I think it is more fitting to refer to them collectively as "community servers", as they are presented in the main menu of the game, and then refer to only the customized ones as "portal custom". There is no such thing as a portal server browser. There is no server browser on the portal publishing website. There is only a community server browser inside BF6, and therefore it is more fitting to refer to them as community servers listed in the community server browser.
The filters are sub-optimal. Yes. They can be improved. Yes. A ton. But, per your definition, the filters are not "bad".
You can filter in only the "full progression servers".
Click Filter. Click Maps & Modes. Select Conquest, Rush, and Breakthrough checkboxes (and Battle Royale, if you are odd). Apply. Presto, only full progression servers are listed.
If you see too many empty servers, apply the 1-5 or 6-10 available slots option in order to see only populated servers.

I will make sure to try that. But I am pretty sure people can make Conquest, Rush and Breakthrough into modified XP.
I don't think so. They should either be verified-mode with full XP, or custom. Custom doesn't list as conquest, rush, or breakthrough, even though they try to mimic it. And verified-mode has too many guardrails now push it out into something else. I could be wrong, but I don't think I have seen verified-mode with modified XP since EA worked through the whole bot farm problem and created guardrails.
I have specualted that EA could better define what an "official' server feels like and add that checkbox option (maybe even as a default); as it would maybe encourage more people to use community servers. But at what cost? It would drive even less traffic towards creators or communities who want something different, and would stifle what EA has otherwise encouraged. It's tricky.
Few people use community servers because few other people use them. Even though they solve all the matchmaking issues people hate, and are now 60 hz, everyone stands in the shadows looking at the empty dance floor. The only people who don't care are PvE players who don't want to play with a lot of other people anyway.
Well... credit where credit is due. Your idea to filter only CQ, BR and Rush has allowed me to find Full progress servers in portal
The filters still need to be better though. For example it would help if we could filter servers to show both the full ones and those who have X number of players minimum
