What do you think of the changes coming to Steam?
i wish the store was much more customizable. I don't play platformers, most AAA and retro games. I which i could remove those from the front page and add DLC releases, strategy games, shooters and RPGs to appear on the store front. I keep missing DLC for games i like but don't follow closely. For example battlefleet gothic had a new fleet released and i only found it almost a week later because i went to play the game to finish the campaign.

FYI: Big changes coming to the Steam interface, including a "visual refresh"
From Techraptor (https://techraptor.net/content/valve-announces-updates-to-steam-store):
In the coming update, we can expect:
Home Page Visual Refresh: Mixing up how the front page appears, removing some visual clutter.
Additional Left Column Navigation: The left navigational column will be getting new direct links to main features of the Steam Store, such as New Releases, Top Sellars, Upcoming Titles, etc.
Friends Activity: A new section to the right of the front page will be dedicated to showing what your friends have been playing lately.
Top Selling New Releases: A brand new section will be added for when a new release becomes a top selling game.
Global Customer Preferences: A new feature that will allow customers to customize their Steam Store experience. Allowing them to opt to exclude certain products from being displayed, such as Videos, Early Access titles, Software, VR, etc.
Targeted Visibility For New Releases: New changes will be made to how new releases will be targeted to the appropriate customers. The goal is to show the specific customer new releases that will most likely appeal to them.
Targeted Visibility For Game Updates: Changes to how Update rounds will be made to be more direct to the customers who would want to see them. Customers who own the game or have it on their wishlist will be prioritized in showing the update.
New Steam Curator Options: Noticing that people are using Steam Curator to give information on a title, without necessarily recommending it, there will be new tools that will allow a curator to make a distinction about whether or not they are recommending, not recommending or just giving information about a title. This will also allow Valve to better understand what curated posts should be highlighted on the front page.
Curators In Main Capsule: The Main Capsule banner will be updated to include curators that the customer personally follows.
Improved Steam Curator Presence: There will be a new section on the Steam Home Page that is dedicated to recommendations from curators. This space will be for recommending more anything from popular releases to more “niche” titles. Additionally, there will be a new landing page to display many recommended titles from a curator.
TL;DR highlights here: https://kotaku.com/looks-like-steams-store-is-getting-an-overhaul-1787065068
