    Seems there is some sort of issue with steam friends after the last update that was issued by steam. I think I'd about 200 on my list and now there's 0.... maybe the jerks just deleted me :(

    A lot of rage on the steam forums about it here.

    There is no need to re-add your old friends, and update is being pushed out which should sort everything out.

    Its being worked on. Fix is currently rolled out to 65% of all users.

    New UI is on its way too . . . details shortly.:)

    EDIT: PR is gone out too early, but the new UI beta is set to go live in a matter of minutes.

    Checked there. saw a brief "your friends will be reconnected", and that's all I got to read, before the friends list came back, none lost.

    Yeah they had, it just took some time to push out a fix that rolled all affected users back.

    I tried the beta and discovered I have a Steam friend. I didn't even know I had a Steam friend... I think I know who it is, but I'm not sure.
