Option for changing Steam right click menu is gone
The right click menu on the Steam icon is relatively useless for me without being able to customize it. I don't want Steam Big Picture or SteamVR, and I like to add online and invisible so I can change my status without opening the friends list.

I reinstalled my OS recently, and after this I've noticed that Steam seems to have removed this option at some point. I would like to see it return, as it is extremely useful. This used to be in the Steam Settings > Interface section.

The option to show online statuses and shortcuts to different sections is still there. I don't remember if it was shown by default before, but now you have to press the "show taskbar preferences button" at the very end of the interface section.

No its not, I know where the option was but it is simply not there anymore.

It still appears on mine, being on the same beta version as you.

Seeing that "Enable context menu focus compatibility mode" option that you have and I don't, I guess you're on Linux, while I'm on Windows, so it seems the option is bugged/removed on Linux. I see there is an open issue on GitHub[github.com] from July.
