In March at GDC we announced that the Steam Library is getting an overhaul. The new Library brings together a player’s experience with a game and new content/communications from the developer and community in a richer, more visual layout.
You can start uploading and previewing the new assets today
We are weeks away from the public beta of this new feature set; now is the time to start uploading new assets for your updated library presence. Download the library asset templates here
Steam will create a fallback treatment for both the capsule and header treatment, but adding your branding assets is the best way to showcase your products in your customer’s Steam libraries.
This treatment will apply to all products on Steam, so we encourage you to back-fill older products so they look their best.

My Steam library is always set to "List" mode, so it won't affect me :)

This is really just a minor redesign, a lot of this theme is already present in the software, right click on the title headers in library view and fart around. They added some box art and a header, woo?
Also still looks better than the colossal shit heap that is the Epic Games Store. But hey they bought a "face to face social network" today guys, we might get some higher quality CHAT soon mwuahaha! Competition doing great things for us!
Actually I think my favorite client library view is the GOG Galaxy beta, shit is DOPE.

There is more to the redesign than this (https://www.pcgamer.com/new-steam-design-2019/). It exlicitly says this is more about store assets, people should read more before they comment, but that's Bluesnews for you.

Am I the only one that misses the original puke green of the original Steam? Something about it make it feel distinct and unique.

We had a whole long discussion about the rest of it in a previous thread which you obviously missed. I'm also shocked anyone still reads PC Gamer by the way, those guys are real survivors.

Okay, good for you? It's still more than what people here are saying, and it IS an improvement.
