Really hate the "modern" design

[Death a Barbar]

everything needs to look the same
no sharp edges, bright colors, generic font, minimalistic design, made of boxes
the old design was infinitely more pleasing

supposedly this was in beta for a long time. I think I might have to opt into this beta nonsense and start giving them some hard NOs because the team of yesmen they've got doin this right now, garbage comes out shoved down all our throats and we have no rights, nothing we can do, be angry for a while till that spark fades.

The music player is straight up gone. Lets just slip that under everyone's noses!
All the convenient buttons and windows that displayed and had everything you could need have now been hidden away.
The top guides have been cast back into obscurity. (at least the "free steam points" spam might die out now)
Each of the menus opens up partially minimized and you have to then rescale them before use.

Well, as they say... you always have to make your customer happy. Or just pretend being deaf for a while and force customer to whatever you wish.

it's like everything was upsized too, like the tray menu is three time larger

The new interfeces isn't any better and looks kind of ass, especially in the screenshot manager where you get some really reduced version of pictures you've taken. These are things that didn't need to be changed.

No sharp edges?

Well if you're on Win11 on the window edges will rounded. I suppose you can throw in the play/install button with rounded corners. The notification and news button at the top right along with your profile icon.

But after that Steam has a lot of pointy edges in it's design. So that part is not entirely true that it rely on round edges.

Minimalistic design? That would mean most buttons being removed and only showing things like install button or the play button.
Steam is currently showing massive amount of information to the user at once. There are people who where annoyed with how much it showed to people at once.

Bright colors? What the Blue text when you're in any of the main sections? The rest is either grey or dark grey unless it's a games box art.

This was the previous design.

Basically 95% the same as now.

I hated how the old design used an obnoxious ammount of space at the top for no good reason. I like see it gone.
Every other client menu seems to be on the place it used to. I don't see it that much of a big deal.

The music player in Steam has always been a barely functional afterthought no one at Valve bothered to give a slice of love.
