Steam UI Update
Is there any way that I can revert back to the old Steam UI because I'm currently using the Metro Skin for Steam and the skin doesn't really work well with the new UI yet. I also don't want to revert back to classic steam because it just feels weird to use the default skin of steam after getting used to a skin for so long.

Nope, they force it upon you.

I was wondering why the new Steam UI is so glitchy, maybe it's because of the Steam Skin.
I'm seeing a lot of bugs, as my avatar and nickname, with Steam Wallet, all together in the left upper corner of the sceen between Steam View Friends Games and Help.

I'm seeing the little white, green letter behind the X button at the right upper corner.

I'm seeing the Friends & Chat button with this name: "Friends & Chat" instead of my avatar, it's highlighted as well.

I need a bit more help, I can't find out where I'm suppose to put -nochatui and -nofriendsui. I've tried looking in properties but cannot find it.

You type that at the right side of the directory.
In Steam.exe right click, go properties, search for directory and add the entries.

Only half fixes the problem :( it gets rid of the discord wanna-be garbage that Valve is trying to force on us, and it makes the friends tab actually readable again........... but the whole UI is still ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING!!!!! and skins are broken......... LET US OPT OUT OR UNDO THIS GARBAGE COMPLETELY
I use metro too, It looks like garbage
Recently released User Interface for the purpose of interacting with various options and interactions with other clients that has been directed and developed by the company Valve for it's digital distribution platform Steam, provides oral suction services to a single biological part of male ♥♥♥♥ sapiens of earth with the intents of stimulating it's sensitive outer later skins which will trigger the natural biological productions of Adrenalin that will speed up the rate of the heart beat, and Dopamine that will affect the nervous system and cause the brain to feel
the sensations of pleasure or "reward", thus triggering the phenomenon known as 'Ejaculation' which is crucial for biological reproductions of any living species on earth.

Under the shortcut tab, in target. Put it after "(Drive Letter):\Program Files (x86)\Steam\Steam.exe"

Also, if you use the Metro skin, there has been an unoffical remaster that you can use. https://mega.nz/#!PygwASDJ!5wcEQ6yGMqHbrEq4vCGdO6Fn6M7Tk2EoleC6g7UYmrQ

I agree, this change was a big jump in the wrong direction. Its these forced migrations that encourages me look at alternatives to Steam...

This is so retarded to say. Resuming how OP Steam is to an UI, thinking you should stop use Steam because of UI and ignoring everything else Steam does in all other ways.

Dude, ♥♥♥♥ your horses, use the default UI while it's not compatible with Custom, stop being overdramatic and crying because of an UI.

Besides, do it... I ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ dare you to do it, stop using everything Steam has to offer (including all games, community and market sutff) because of the UI and try to find an alternative. The fact is, there's no alternative to Steam, you can say Battle.NET, Origin, Uplay, Dezura but none of that has what Steam have:

Capability to have Triple A to Indie games on it.
Allow new and indie developers to show the world his work.
Games that can give you items that you can sell in Market and buy more games.
A huge community to every single game where you can talk to players and devs.
A huge story where you can search and filter for more than 25k games without inlcuding DLCs.
A story with not only games, but with movies and software as well.
Even more things that I will lose time putting in here...

C'mon, your arrogant selfish ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, show me an alternative to Steam right now.

Shut your ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ mouth, hold your breath because of an UI and stop wining like a baby about it, it's not the end of the world, it will not kill your wife neither bankrupt you.

Glad to see I'm not the only one that despises this change.
The new employees at valve don't seem to understand the motto, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."
This new ui is so damn buggy and filled with so many glitches and inconveniences it's driving me insane.
I actually couldn't even join a friend's game earlier because the new invite system wasn't working.

The update of the new UI revoked my family library sharing and now I can't access any of the games that have been shared with me. Can anyone help me?
