And somehow making the UI worse every single update. HOW?

Taking lessons from Valve and steam, I suspect.

I genuinely don’t understand how these companies go “Okay, we have a very elegant, simple, sleek, and fast interface here…Heres what we should do, we should completely fuck it up, make it slower, and make it require more resources for absolutely no reason”

Is this an old meme? They revamped their UI and I think it’s (Steam) very intuitive now. I do remember when they had like 10 different styles of drop-down box on the desktop app. But, I don’t see that now.

Main function are ok, sure, but Steam still is is inconsistant, the 40 different css for buttons is not just a meme. It improved with the revamp, but that was only a few pages. Take a look at the community, workshop and profile page it’s a mess.
Same as discord it had a lot of feature creep over the years so it’s not easy to understand, but for me it’s worth giving up ease of use for theses features.

It’s just paycheck justification. “Look we did something, we are useful”
