Valve completely redesigned Big Picture Mode for Steam Deck and SteamOS. They've been porting those changes over to Desktop Steam and even changing Desktop Steam's UI slowly to match and make everything more consistant.

Disclaimer: I have a theme mod installed which changes the color of some elements. Layout is the same though.
Interesting. Guess it's not on desktop.
Not sure what's not on Desktop for you. I'm on the Steam Desktop Beta and this all shows up on my Desktop Big Picture.
PS: These screenshots were made on a Windows PC which is why the Compatibility tab isn't in the Game settings.
You answered your own question. You're using a beta version.
Yeah, but they're coming to Desktop stable soon. Or you can switch to Beta and try them out. It's up to you. Just wanted to show that Valve is addressing the issues with Big Picture Mode.
I'm happy they are. I might actually use it. Thank you
