Unsubscribing to shit you don't care about, using the search on the desktop client to be able to select 100s of emails and delete them at a time, and automatic filters are your friend.
And like someone else said, if it's over like a month old and unread, chuck it in an "archive" folder and mark all as read. They'll still be there if you absolutely need them, but won't be cluttering stuff up.
Don't try to manage it from the phone app, it's a pain in the ass.
Caveat: I say all this with even more unread than your picture, and having not done any cleanup of my inboxes (besides setting filters on my work one) in years. I just remember what did work for me the last time I was on top of my inbox for a few years in college.
