I've been using it in the beta for a while. The new overlay is definitely the biggest improvement for me. Everything is snappier, and the new notes feature is nice. It initially didn't have the ability to show players in the same lobby as you like the old overlay (in games that supported it, like TF2). But they re-added it after some feedback.
I'm actually kind of excited for the notes feature. Having a place to save notes if I come back to a game way later (thanks backlog) to help catch up is great. Or just keeping track of things for puzzle/mystery games is handy
Oh right I forgot about the steam update to the nee UI, I hoped on the beta test and decided to keep it. I genuinely forgot that it was new because it was very intuitive.
I do like the look, but clicking on search results, or items on the store pages won't open up the page, it just keeps going to the homepage. Sure they'll fix that one quickly.
Is this an extension of the new web UI stuff like chat and library? I like the new look but I don't think they nailed all the bugs with it yet. I usually have to fully restart steam after my laptop wakes up from sleep to get the library page to work again.
