Let us have the old library design back

[Falleax]

At least as an option. If it aint broke, don't fix it.

I hate the new ui. It's ♥♥♥♥♥♥ my old categories I set up, my games are mixed in with others and in general it looks trash. Give us an option to go back to the old one.

I don't know why some peoples categories are getting messed up but this must be a bug (a bad one) cause mine were exactly the same. You must not be alone though cause I have heard that from a number of people.

Well, 244 pages, 3,656 comments (at the time that I am writing this) and every last one of them is about how we all hate this new library layout. I guess that means Valve is going to consider it a success and make it permanent. Everyone hates it, must be good (that does seem to be the Valve way of doing things).

I can't even que multiple downloads of my own games in a row. WTF is this? I wanna download a few games overnight and I cant, GG.

That is very odd, I've been following this thread and haven't heard anyone else with that problem. You should be able to download exactly the same as before. Nothing regarding downloads or installations has changed, the back end for installs is exactly the same. You should be able to hit install, choose location, hit ok, then see it in the download manager. You should be able to que as many as you want.

The download part works the same as it did before, not even the ui has been changed there. Don´t think any issue you have with downloads is related to the update.

Wow is this new look trash. At least give us the option to revert it.

Please!

My God the performance issues. I hate it when I go to scroll and the whole app just freezes for 1-2 seconds at a time... heck even while typing this, I can't even see what I'm typing for 2+ seconds at a time sometimes.

I know my computer is not top-of-the-line, but I can run a bunch of games at 60+ FPS ... a freaking launcher app should NOT be having performance issues. I'm running a Ryzen5 with 16GB and a 1050ti. No flippin reason I should be seeing these issues.

I don't need all the pretty bells and whistles. I just need my game list, and a PLAY button and that's it. Everything else is just eating up extra resources.

Please give us an option to turn on "Steam Lite" or something so I'm not wasting all kinds of RAM and CPU cycles on all these bells and whistles I never even use.

At the very least, I'd like to tab to my library and not see a blank screen until I scroll up or down and/or be able to scroll through my library without the app hanging for 1-2 seconds on a regular basis.

They should make a steam lite client or mode, but if you're having very bad lag and things not loading right (like not drawing till you scroll or move your mouse around), then turn off gpu accelerated web views.

Settings -> Interface -> uncheck enable gpu accelerated rendering in web views. (restart)
There is a bug with nvidia drivers and chromium causing huge problems for some(lots) of people.

I could hug you!

Thank you so much for this.

This hasn't gotten rid of ALL of the issues I've been having (the discussions area still hangs while typing for example) but at least my library list doesn't come up blank and have scrolling issues.

I've tried, mentioned it to a friend also. He has the same problem when he views the download screen they are not there. But if he looks on the left they are showing whereas for me they just remain grey. It's annoying me D:

LOL! Steam trying to mimic Epic library

[Hamez the Horrible]

It's freaking tragic, honestly. They must be running out of money. I wish they'd go back to making video games, instead of trying to milk cash out of one of their greatest innovations.

[NeoMJay]

An option to switch to the old one would be neat.

[jackodragon1126]
