The fact that I never really noticed this for over 10 years of being a decently regular steam user speaks to how generally well put together the UI is, maybe not despite this, but because of this
I agree. The minimalism speaks louder than the accents AND fonts they change it to. The person in charge of that department must know when a good thing doesn’t need too much of a change. Despite it being changed bi-annually, lol.
Someone should make a game show where you guess what button it is without the text lol.
You know how Half Life and TF2 have almost the same settings menu?
Those two games are almost 10 years apart
I think this is better than having a UI that looks like it came straight from Windows 98.
I will never unsee this, hahah. Amazing.
Didn’t they just fix all of this mess a few weeks ago? Or did that just introduce even more inconsistencies?
I’d say they fixed a lot of it but still a lot remains. Going in the right direction though.
This is so funny - I never thought about it before but they’re all so inconsistent! Imagining the work it might take to fix this sounds like a lot though - as long as accessibility is good maybe it doesn’t matter so much.
I really like the new UI, there are a few glitches… but hey, just give 'em time to fix it.
The design itself is pretty.
I kind of like how it’s a time capsule of all the different changes it’s been through

You should add the error bar that pops up over the window control buttons on the very top of the window as well
Dude it’s not like they know anything about graphic design or UI elements I mean their core competency is gaming…OHHhHh
What about the menus opening on the other monitor?
Steam really is a mess
It’s getting to be that age :(
Steam has been a mess for years. Of all the applications I’ve ever used on a pc, steam has broken the most/had the most annoying user experience, hands down.
You must be unlucky. I can’t recall ever having issues with steam.
God I wrote like 3 paragraphs of hair-pulling stupid bugs and experiences I’ve had with steam just over the last couple years but jfc, long story short is your experiences are not universal. Steam horror stories are as common as flies on a week old corpse
Yeh I get it my experience of 1 isn’t a good stat.
Eh, at least it’s clear enough and (hopefully) there’s minimal dark pattern, intentional or not
Their only problem is in consistency where Windows at least has “backwards compatibility” as an excuse though lol
