m5pro 64gb, 3s to get to the first 'loading window', 5s to get to the store page. But honestly who gives a shit. If you are the average working joe who comes home from work and fires up the pc to play a game, a 5s load of steam is not even a piece of gravel in the road let alone a speed bump. It's not like i'm opening and closing steam 100, 50 or even 5 times a day. It's a useless metric.
I occasionally want to play a little video game after work. The amount of nonsense involved before actually launching the game has deterred me enough that I usually play something not on Steam instead. Like, AssaultCube launches instantly. Even Minecraft with the right launcher is pretty quick.
Standards are so low these days.

My usecase was wanting to add a game to a wishlist

I've opened Steam app about a thousand times and it's always felt like clunky dated software.
