PayPalValve have done a couple of small but useful tweaks to developer and publisher homepages, resulting in hopefully a little more visibility.
Don't know what I'm talking about? When you click a developer or publisher name on Steam, if developers have actually set them up, you'll go to their fancy page. They're actually pretty important for the reach of games, since anyone logged in on Steam can directly follow a page to get notifications about new game releases. Easy for players to keep track of their favourite developers and publishers.
Like this example below for Hooded Horse:
Valve have tweaked the pages to enable developers to add various social media links, so they will show up at the top.
Additionally, these pages will also now show up every time you go through the checkout process on Steam, to show the pages for all the developers and publishers involved. Example below for 9 Kings (look to the bottom right):
On top of that, Valve made even it easier for developers to link games to these homepages so nothing gets missed. As developers set up a new store page for a new game, they can link them up right there whereas before it was an entirely separate page.

I do follow a handful too, but it's honestly the blocking feature I use most!
I'm so spiteful...
Edit to add: I still don't get the creator pages when I click on a publisher or developer. It looks like you have to click on the word "Homepage" in brackets after their name. If you click on the publisher's actual name, you just get a list of their games in the usual Steam search format! If there's no "Homepage" link, then they haven't set up a creator page, I suspect.

If developers have these konds of pages then all fine and dandy but sometimes I just wanna see a quick list but then I get sent to the publisher page instead, meh.
Now if we coukd just use publisher and developer names as tags in our libraries.
Making custom collections is a little bit of a chore.
You can make one for "Birds" though.
Maybe little unrelated.
More dev page visability is a good thing though regardless.
