I can't go back to old family share after enabling the beta?
I thought the new family share sounded better than the old one (Global) and once i tried it, it's country locked, and if i exit the beta it says i must have the beta on if i want use family share at all, the features got entirely replaced by the new family share, now i can't play any of the games i had shared from my friends across the world.
Basically it's like they got rid entirely of the normal family share and it's gonna happen to all normal users once it exits beta.
Is this a pyramid scheme? a rabbit trap?

How do you add them back from the not family beta, I been given "Failed to accept the family invite. You are ineligible to join this Steam Family at this time, as your Steam activity doesn't indicate that you are in the same household as other members of this family." The other account is in another country btw
Steam has been getting progressively worse over the last few years, this is one such example. I don't have family overseas but I really hope you don't get shafted like most people with international families do.

ikr posts like these show that people just want family share to work normal, if there are some publishers raising a stinky over people sharing it with family and friends in another country then by all means let them opt out. don't change how the entire system works just for them, Like dear god they earn so much, dodge taxes yet money pinch so hard like they are bored or something, And the one year timer is even more bizarre, it's so intrusive that i have legit being only buying on xbox cause it is a better service to me now.
Xbox is a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. When Xbox provides a better service, you know they ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up somewhere.
