There are a few settings you can set, to make it more light. I use it, because my computer is a bit old now. Open Steam Settings > Library and tick ON “Low Bandwidth Mode”, “Low Performance Mode”, “Disable Community Content” and disable “Show game icons in the left column”.
Depending on your system, either enable or disable the setting at Steam Settings > Interface > “Enable GPU accelerated renderin in web views” and “Enable hardware video decoding, if supported”.
These tweaks should help with an older system. And Steam has a very small mode too. In the main user interface menu at top, click View > Small Mode.
Oh you are right, that makes totally sense. I was so focused on the performance side. In the past Steam allowed for custom skins, but they never looked great in my opinion or functioned well. If the UI is flexible enough, hopefully the custom skins will make a return. I would like to build my own custom client based on the official client.
I meant light as in light colours. Black text on white backgrounds. I have astigmatism which makes white text on dark backgrounds extremely blurry for me.

They might have meant light as opposed to dark, not “lite.”

I appreciate the attempt at helping though.
