It’s bad enough they make ‘features’ I don’t want enabled by default, but it’s even worse when the lazy/incompetent developers can’t even give me the option to change it.

    I can’t say I care too much about this feature, but looking into it I can’t seem to find any documentation about it at all. Where are you getting this confirmation that you can’t disable it?

    I’d just stop using Steam Chat if it’s not working for you, there are dozens of game chat services specifically built for chatting in games. Then again, I’d probably stop playing with people that make me self–conscious of typing indicators as well.

    Also lol @ anything Valve designs being “modern”. Steam Chat looks, feels, and behaves like MSN Messenger did twenty years ago. Don’t let the gradients fool you.
