Big thanks to RedSigma for keeping this skin alive until now
Steam's latest update has released the updated client to all users now, so Metro is now dead. Thanks RedSigma for helping keep it alive all these years, it's been the best and cleanest skin I've ever used. Hopefully we get an easier way of skinning with CSS in the future.

Hopefully there will be a new method of customizing steam, but for now I just wanted to thank all of you for the 8 years of this community's existence.

I am confused, did they remove skin support?

They updated the main UI in the new client update, and part of that change included the removal of custom steam skins. RIP Metro
Thanks for keeping the metro theme, i feel empty without it now T_T

peoples are already working on the new implementation of theme by css :

https://github.com/AikoMidori/SteamSkins (exemple with metro and fluent theme)

pending the availability of the first versions, i currently use Millenium to inject the theme function :
https://github.com/ShadowMonster99/millennium-steam-patcher

and I choose Shadow's black library available on the Discord server of Millennium.

what I have at home:

there are bugs, but the appearance is already much better than the vanilla skin of the new interface.

There is also a first version of the Space theme available for the new interface : https://github.com/SpaceEnergy/SpaceTheme-Steam

I just bet Steam will make their own skins in Points Shop

to be honest i wouldn't mind at all as long as there are slick and well made skins similar to metro :D

rip.. i'll miss it for sure... I'm sure there will be ways around it in the future but until then.. really appreciate the work that went into keeping it updated for so long...

Petar on the discord has put up a website with a nice guide on how to skin the new client https://steamskins.pages.dev/

Though the existing metro skin is still dead, many folks are working on their own skins and new skins that replicate the metro experience
Metro or others themes can still be used, can disable new vgui

1º Create a shortcut to Steam on the desktop,
2º click properties, and in "Target" add -vgui.
3º Now turn on steam from that shortcut and you have the old ui!
4º Interface settings on Steam and select the metro skin again!
