So i know i can select multiple with SHIFT or with filters but if i have a mess in a certain overlay area can i select them somehow by dragging mouse in a certain way? or with some filter in the properties tab? same question for schematic .I sort of feel there must bea abetter way then SHIFT clock or filter on entire PBC/schematic.

You can drag select an area. Two ways - top left to bottom right for everything WITHIN rectangle - bottom right to top left for everything TOUCHING the rectangle

set filter to TEXT only and as @QDrives pointed out, draw a rectangle around them by mouse. i dont have access to altium now to test it, but I think that is what I use

Strictly speaking, depending on what you want to do, you need to select "components" and not "text" as designators are a property of the components.For instance if you want to hide them.
