I honestly don’t care how it looks, provided it’s easy to navigate. Steam gets that right. Other apps and websites with constant updates just requires relearning how to do what you want.
I only need Steam to do a few things:
work well on Linux
customize controllers/inputs
organize my games
help me find new games
It does all of those well, the other stores do not. If any other store handles that, they’ll get my money.
The fact that Steam acts like website and not an “app” is amazing. I want to be able to right click, copy and paste, and see the address bar of what I’m looking at.
It’s a great example of “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it” - Steam updates usually make the software better
That’s why steam looks outdated
Counterpoint: Every other modern “flat” UI is low effort, cheap garbage. Bring back the bezels and shadows.
