If you filter your sheet as described above, everyone that views the sheet will see the same filter when they open it. If you want collaborators to be able to view data differently when they open the sheet, you can use filter views.
You can create multiple filter views in a sheet, giving each a name that can be selected to view that set of data at any time.
