Family Shared games are now mixed with my own library
The family shared games used to be default separated on the library, now it's all mixed in. Is there a setting to change it back or is this intended? If so can we get it back please? it would make it so much easier to navigate large shared libraries

There is actually, in Library there's a button under 'Home' if you click on it, there should then be an option you can tick to 'Group by Library' which will put any games from a shared library in a separate category with 'X's Games' being the name (X being the name of whoever's library it is)
if you had added any of those games to a category of your own making it won't show on those, only on the new category.

Thank you so much! Dunno why it got disabled by default in the beta

Ah, I had to turn on both "Group by Collection" and "Group By Library" to keep my shared account's games out of my games list in case anyone else still had a problem like me. Oddly enough, 'by' is capitalized just like that in Steam lol.

Thank you SO MUCH. This worked for me, too. May your sleeves always stay up when you wash your hands and may the toilet seat never be wet when you sit down.
