This is my first time actually looking at the new Steam store UI and I have to say that I don’t like it. They seem determined to fit less and less information on the screen and make it harder to find content. I didn’t like their previous UI revamp either for the same reason, but this one is worse. That’s fine Valve, my backlog is eternal, I won’t buy more games if you make it hard.

Looks like they’re optimizing the UI for handheld/console while forgetting that the majority of their userbase is still on desktop.

That could very well be the case. We don’t have their stats, so maybe they do get a lot of store users on their phone where people make purchases and then later play on their PCs… but I am pressing F to doubt here.

I do the majority of Steam browsing on my deck, with much of the rest being following links in Lemmy, etc. on my phone. I also expect I’m not their typical user.

Hey, maybe you’re more common than either of us suspected. I do all of my steam usage on my desktop with a large monitor. Their UI is trash for it IMO.
