I hate that it steals the focus like 5 times when launching. I’ll try to click off to do something while it’s starting, but it steals input focus. I get doing it once when the app finishes loading, but I really don’t need to stare at the startup progress bar.
and no, it wasnt a storefront then either, because it was DRM/game decrypter and multiplayer server finder. They had no other games for sale at the time.
it had utility, it would reduce ram usage, make the program more usable. But now it doesn’t because it’s all fucking electron, so it’s literally useless.
I agree with the poster, I don’t want any of that social nonsense, I just want to play games. As long as they keep developing Proton, I can forgive quite a lot.

Steam, as a program, has fundamentally gotten worse with every update ever since they switched to electron/chromium
Steam has always been a social gaming platform…in fact it wasn’t even always a storefront.
I’ve had steam since HL2 launched.
No it hasnt.

Small mode? I had completely forgotten that it existed. I didn’t know anyone used that.

Same, never heard of it, but now I want it.
