My immediate reaction: It still looks like this, doesn’t it?

It doesn’t, but I feel like I saw this like a couple weeks ago. Does it still look like this on the website on mobile or something?

    Take me back to when websites were just functional like this.

    Steam is still pretty functional to be fair.

    Compared to most sites yeah, but still nothing like it was. I have to scroll 5 full page lengths just to get to the top sellers. Or I hover over New and Noteworthy, wait a second for the drop down to fade in and then click top sellers, we just don't need an animation on it.

    It's just lots of carousels now and big oversized buttons.

    This was after the classic green. Steam has basically gone through 3 major redesigns. They usually were part of some bigger product launch.

    • Classic green
    • Dark gray (coincided with Orange box and launch on Mac OS X)
    • “Big Picture” blue (coincided with the launch of SteamOS, Steam Link, Steam Controller, and the failed Steam Machines)
    • Basically KDE plasma (coincided with the launch of the Steam Deck)

    This is from memory, so I could be off on some of this.

    Steam should still have grey as a user interface color option.

    The best UIs are the ones that never change.

    IMO this was peqk steam design. I remember in 2014 being real sad when they switched to the blue one.

    The worst was changing the best controller configuration UI when they retired Old Big Picture. The UX was absolutely perfect and paired with a steam controller you could make fairly complex configs easily. Now I am forced to use the old linux client on linux to keep the UI but cannot enjoy the new compatibility stuff like gamescope.
