As far as I can tell, Steam’s main window is a web browser, upon which their web app “Steam” provides the experience we all suffer today. No doubt it has benefits for cross-platform work minimization, but they don’t seem to care how shoddy an experience it provides.

Steam does use CEF but I don't think the UI rendering itself is actually what is causing slowness. The backend logic as well as services are native code
