    but can we block entire publishers from appearing yet?

    You can.

    Open a publisher page, then in the top right corner, look for a gear icon. Click it, and there's an option to ignore this publisher.

    Unfortunately there's a limitation. This works only for those having a dedicated publisher page. For publishers without a dedicated page, Steam will fallback to the search page, which doesn't provide a way to ignore this publisher.

    Thanks, I didn't know that. I can maintain my silly decades old grudge vs Stardock now, haha.

    I'm curious as to why. Granted I don't even think I own a game by Stardock that I'm aware of, but always down for buying more ethically if they've done something heinous

    Mostly for the fun of having a grudge at this point, haha. A long time ago when I was a kid they made a name for themselves with the "Gamers Bill of Rights". It earned them a bunch of goodwill, and then they immediately released a game in a completely broken state missing half the features they advertised. At which point they dropped their "gamers bill of rights" and refused to give refunds like it stated.

    Not particularly heinous by todays standards though I guess.

    You use steam chat on your phone?

    Huh. Never even occured to me to do that.

    So, why do you do that?

    I don't, that's the issue lol.

    I'd like to, but it's a horrid experience.

    Because the only other messaging app I use is Signal, and some of my Steam friends don't use it.

    If this improves the big picture mode (pretty much the only way I like to use steam) I’ll be happy

    Currently the cursor gets stuck, can’t reach some options, and hitting back loses all your history or brings you to different places on the page, or someone altogether a different page.

    Other times the similar games list escapes its scroll box and goes over content and out of frame.

    It’s clearly not well tested despite Steam Deck not being new snd BP not being remotely new.
