Arabic support in Steam UI 🇸🇦 🇦🇪 🇧🇭 🇶🇦 🇰🇼 🇴🇲 🇮🇶 🇵🇸 🇯🇴 🇾🇪 🇱🇧 🇸🇾 🇪🇬 🇱🇾 🇸🇩 🇩🇯 🇰🇲 🇸🇴 🇹🇳 🇩🇿 🇲🇦 🇲🇷
It was great to finally see Arabic appear on Steam’s web version. This is an important step — millions of gamers in the Middle East have been waiting for it, and the demand is real.

That said, the first test showed some clear problems:

• The translation felt machine-made and not polished.
• Chrome’s auto-translate gave clearer results in many menus.
• RTL wasn’t applied correctly (icons, punctuation, and text alignment).
• The font looked poor and hurt readability.

We really appreciate that Arabic is being worked on. Please continue the effort, but with proper human localization, full RTL support, and a modern Arabic font. The community is ready to help test and review so Arabic can launch at the quality level Steam is known for.
