Thank fuck for Steam incentivizing removing launcher spam with the Steam Deck. Yes, it reduces functionality and also yes, Steam is itself a launcher. Publishers have to start cutting out with the launcher practice tho.

MODERATORS
Ideally if there is a launcher it should be optional, preferably something that can be bypassed by passing a flag.
Same as Skyrim, basically. You can still enable the launcher by changing the launch commands.
Before I even open the article I see comments correcting its misinformation. Go and read it and see they are just trying to shit on Bethesda for improving their user experience because it's popular to criticize Bethesda.
They really just let anyone write anything on the Internet these days.
Updates used to be used for improvements and enhancements. Now they seem to be mainly used for resetting your tracking settings, adding more tracking, and removing useful features. We're truly going backwards as a digital society.
I was playing earlier (on desktop) and outside the quests it spammed me with, nothing seems to have changed much.
They break mods too.
