My Steam games used to be separated by who I family share with, but now its just a giant mess of 500+ games. I wish there was at least a way to organize my games out vs my dads games.

The fact that we need to do an additional something to manually restore a feature just shows how much of a regression the change is...

I know everyone's been bitching about it already but my steam finally bothered updating and got the new stuff.

I've put shortcuts to the games onto my desktop, just so I can avoid even looking at it.
