James M ✝🇻🇦 🇮🇪 (@Jimmay94) reported@Steam Im more of a fan of being allowed to login to the account I own with my games without being dicked around, too bad steam can't do that it seems
-
𝕮𝖗𝖎𝖘𝖒𝖚 (@crismu17) reported@ArmaPlatform @Steam Game still broken on Xbox 😭
-
BYYONI (@BYYONI1) reported@CombateMonero I Support already refused, giving a generic corporate response with information that doesn't relate to the problem. Now I've written to the support that handles festivals directly and I'm waiting for a response. Unfortunately, @Steam rarely cares about developers' problems.
-
Gonger | XC3, Freestyle Flute Blower (@Le_Gonger) reported@ZooL_Smith @Steam Skill issue?

PaLM AI - $PALM (@palmaierc) reportedMajor Announcement - Fall 2026 This fall, our local AI harness that rivals everything else currently on the market, root, is going to be shipped as a software product over to @Steam. 1) Publishing the application on Steam will remove the need for a separate signature on the executable. 2) Steam has become the go-to for gaming & creativity related software tools, which goes hand-in-hand with root. 3) Wide accessibility. You acquire it once, and it is yours forever. The Steam Version will not support any cryptocurrency features and all sales revenue will be registered to the Web2 side of our business. It will also be restricted and controlled according to the Terms of Service of Steam and other agreements that the company may become liable to, including a refund policy. We will keep the community updated on the status of the publication. Expect it to happen within a few months. Thank you for your support.

Michael Eskenasy (@ItsChefreyOS) reportedHey @Steam people…I’ve been saying this for weeks, your coordination is broken…
-
Tappin (@t4ppin) reportedFix your game please add elo rollback for cheater games. The amount of cheaters is disgusting and your killing your game by allowing this to happen. Just played against two blatant hackers and lost -450 cause of it. @valvesoftware @Steam @CounterStrike
-
JohnnyHelldiver (@hiles_johnathan) reportedOi @Steam can’t login or view friends list or games list on the app or the desktop app
-
Sam Pritchard (@sdp2012uk) reportedHey @WARDOGS I have been given the test play version on @Steam but once it’s installed I’ve tried to launch the game and it shows a login error saying I’m not authorised to use it, how can I fix this please? #Help
-
Chris (@no1089) reported@Steam and @FrameworkPuter 's 3rd parties being hacked days apart - exposing all my personal details is just great. Thank you both for your concern regarding the incident. I feel really valued as a customer. /s "Expect fake messages - email, SMS or phone - that mention your hardware order and appear to come from Steam, Valve or a delivery company. They may quote your address back to you to prove they're genuine. They may ask you to confirm a delivery, pay a small customs or redelivery fee, or sign in somewhere to “verify” your order. Treat all of them as fake."
-
AllahingMutant (@AllahingMutant) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Skill issue. Your game is the equivalent of a fat chick that puts out on the first date and is a lousy lay on top of that. If people aren't coming back for seconds, that's on you.
-
MetriusMD (@MetriusMD) reportedI never really had a problem with buying key codes on @KinguinNet until I ran into Pressure by @Chasing_Carrots developer is very bad on discord you can dm anyone it says to email them but the dev will not reply to any emails can't even leave a bad review #baddeveloper @Steam
-
Sunkanmi Fafowora (@the_jonin_) reportedThat's why @Steam still remains the best company out there, and it's not even close. Their customer service is literally unbeatable at this point. Still saw the recent news of the refund based on the fact that the gamer was cheated in a way after many hours of playthrough.

meow 🪓 (@kitcatexe) reported@WhiteHouse @Steam @Steam_Support just so you guys know sometimes the lag is worse trust and pls help i need to feed my slimes

StockStackr (@VeganCatBounce) reported@Steam you want to spam in the background, but when I go to log in to my account you have been spoofin, now we have a password issues? you pukes!

Ḛ̴͓̹̫͈̤͈̿́͝ļ̶̖͋͒̉͂̽̃́̈́̽͛l̸͓̬̦̫̩̄͛̾̈́́͑̉͒̈̈́̐͘͝a̵̍ (@m_Crom_m) reported@prestonjbyrne my twitter 12 (2014) creating an account at 6 makes me 18? my google account is older I watched a minecraft video and it said "hold up a minute!! were not sure how old you are" like **** you don't know @Google b!tches. 22 years @Steam long service badge and they want my id too
-
silver Black (@SILVERDEIMONSBL) reported@Steam I have a question: when are you going to launch your own cloud gaming service? I would really love to be able to play the games I buy on my mobile phone, since I don't have a computer. I really miss having a cloud gaming option that lets me play on my phone without needing a PC.
-
Dani (@sqronce) reported@Zoroarts @nieyter19 @Steam Some would believe evidence, and some wouldn’t. Receipts help with claims. While you’re trying to prove claims, I’m still waiting on evidence of all the reviews boasting of refunding after completing in under 2 hours, showing that this form of refund was a wide spread issue.
-
Pankaj Indoria (@PankajIndoria1) reported@SteamSupport I'm unable to sign in to my Steam acc. After trying several times, I now receive an "Exceeded" error and can't access my account in the Steam client or browser.This issue is affecting my work. Please look into this as soon as possible. #Steam #SteamSupport @Steam
-
Levi Benoit (@lildeviousdude) reported@Steam @Steam_Support Steam is inaccessible in the profile selection screen without a mouse. Can you guys fix this? I can use spacebar AND enter to select the options bar and even remove the account, but I can’t sign in. Actual L right here
-
Xenos (Ambassador Of Indie Games) (@WrenchOfChaos) reported@plzbnicetome @Steam Yeah I did that for a long time with Nintendo and it sucked, I ended up with lots of games I ended up not liking, lots of wasted money, and steam actually let's you return games you don't like. Very weird how you want service to be WORSE. I don't EXPECT them to, they LET ME.
-
Cezary Kruszewski (@CezaryKruszews1) reported@KagutsuchiHeika @Pirat_Nation Actually issue is with @Steam as it was clearly stated by them that accounts cannot be passed on.
-
Zynner (@zynnachin) reported@Shinogi_Trench @BasedBickle @Steam Wow, the game has some glaring issues that it takes playtime to figure out? Because they didn’t adequately playtest it? And I don’t get to speak about it? You are a spiritual slave
-
StockStackr (@VeganCatBounce) reportedThe actual problem is I got a new phone # and steam will not let me log in with a password, an email, they are forcing me to give that phone # I can not play war of rights because I refuse to let steam farm me. **** off @Steam
