No, not even once. It's an inferior launcher to Steam in literally every single way.

Well considering Steam has been around for a long ass time, and in its early days was a buggy pile of dog shit, I’m not sure why people keep comparing them.

I'm not sure why you wouldn't compare them. They have no competition except each other. They're the exact same product, except one has been curated and polished over decades, and the other was seemingly designed by someone who's never used a piece of software before.

How user friendly was Steam in its first couple years?

It doesn't matter. Steam is good NOW and Epic isn't, and that's all that matters to a consumer. Epic had all of Steam's history to look at for inspiration and learning so they don't repeat the same mistakes, and then they proceeded to just make all of the mistakes anyways.
