Steam skins doens't show in new UI
But, there are non-Official skins as told in https://github.com/AikoMidori/steam-library which may or mayn't extend to this updated UI so try to follow them to see how it goes.
-
Are steam skins dead?
Not dead but not as effective as they were before either because Valve crippled much of skinning after they embraced the ReactJS into everything you see on Steam. Steam skinning works on Steam.exe (old routines) so currently it only skins the outer layers of dialogs as Metro still works (with patch) well enough. Unofficial skinning works on Steam.HTML (no such file, ReactJS) after patching & while allows much more customization, it's also breaking after each Steam update (real ones, not start saying updating).

How to get Steam skins to cover whole library and not just the top of the UI?
Another way, which also allows skinning the friends list, is to use a tool that I created called SFP (https://github.com/PhantomGamers/SFP). A popular library skin that can be used with SFP is Shiina's library skin available here: https://github.com/AikoMidori/steam-library

Is there way to customize the steam library ui?
Not really and all working unofficially on at your risk. Start with https://github.com/AikoMidori/steam-library and there are links in there that leads to lots of other links that uses the same technique.

Does steam actually have themes?
There are Unofficial GitHub (virus free) user made patches that allows ultimate skinning on Steam library but it's high maintenance as Steam wipes all customization in each update. Start here and read and watch all the necessary information as I provided info as is, no guarantees (depends on your know-how)...

Using a steam skin I made, today it just cut off half the top tool bar. what is this?
That's a different issue entirely, something else changed that broke the way the What's New section was hidden before. Maybe SFP can inject styles there.
-
(Found this on Facebook) What's wrong with new design? The new one looks so clean and modern
This is entirely Valve's fault, not the skinners. And while there are workarounds, e.g. patching your Steam client to make it work, not everyone is going to be comfortable with that.
-
Is it possible to use Steam Deck themes (from e.g. CSS Loader) on Windows / Linux Big Picture?
Currently checking SFP, apparently it can theme the friends list but not Big Picture yet. But I'll be keeping an eye on the project
-
Does anyone know why Metro skin only changes the top Hotbar?
You need SFP.
