The fact that I never really noticed this for over 10 years of being a decently regular steam user speaks to how generally well put together the UI is, maybe not despite this, but because of this
I agree. The minimalism speaks louder than the accents AND fonts they change it to. The person in charge of that department must know when a good thing doesn't need too much of a change. Despite it being changed bi-annually, lol.
Steam has been a mess for years. Of all the applications I’ve ever used on a pc, steam has broken the most/had the most annoying user experience, hands down.
This is so funny - I never thought about it before but they're all so inconsistent! Imagining the work it might take to fix this sounds like a lot though - as long as accessibility is good maybe it doesn't matter so much.
