Big Picture Mode nobody uses or likes you
I usually don't care about dumb products that a corporation or developer tries to make when I can actively ignore it. But I can't even do that with my controller always turning on the big picture mode because its the freaking ON button for said controller. I have seen people on here and on reddit post actively trying to disable this feature, but Valve has such a huge boner for this feature that even disabling the guide button and all related setting to turn it off doesn't work. Its a setting that doesn't even do what it promises .

Even on that one, Valve wont even let you disable within its file the Dreaded "Panorama Malware" as its infamously called will always reinstall that stupid thing back into the program. So I just want to know Valve. Why do you even want me to use this feature that doesn't need to be on here when i can just use my ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ mouse and go through your app without it.

I just spent 4 hours trying to stop your dumb program from interrupting me every time I turn my controller on , but no your "Big Picture Mode" is so precious to you that you gotta force people to keep it on in the hopes that someone likes it . Well I will tell you, nobody is gonna be like "Oh well this feature is so useful I can go through the entire app like its a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ XBOX menu. I never knew what I was missing from my life until I met Valve's 'Big Picture Mode' . Thank you Valve for improving my life ." In fact I bet about 90% of people who accidentally happen upon it immediately try to close it and think to themselves. "Well that was annnoying."

Why am I posting this? I don't care who reads this , I am posting this so I can complain in the hopes that someone from the company can see me flipping them off . I want to let whoever came up with this system and malarky to know that they are the dumbest people ever to make a program and hope they actively are removed from their job and community of programmers. I am so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ done .

It's the Steam Deck UI. It's not Panorama.

Speak for yourself. Some games run better in big picture mode than in desktop mode.

Run better? We're talking about a simple UI here, right? How could that influence your games performance?

I use and like big picture mode

While I don't use the big picture mode, it's a good thing they have it -- it's much more suitable for something like a HTPC that's used for gaming.

I used to use Big Picture Mode, but then the Steam Deck version happened turning it to ♥♥♥♥ so I jumped ship to Playnite.
