Orange Cat Pinochet (@zaphraud) reportedI installed it on a different phone, a spamsung with the latest android instead of the LG, and was able to log in using that and my email. Then fix it. Think that thru. App-based 2FA is worse than nothing. @steam

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.

Rickey Pendarvis (@rickeyp2121) reported@EatPantGames It unfortunate that @PlayStation idiocy is causing problems like this for small indie teams and games. Obviously not everyone can do physical release. @Steam has proven they are trustworthy with digital for decades. Hope people support you over there. I will 👍

Manthos Lappas | ASTHENIA-GAMESCOM (@ManthosLappas) reported@Kakourakakou @stan_banatan @Steam I totally am fine with such negative reviews, so everyone knows. And we always look into such issues if they occur. And I find those logical, justified reviews that do help us.
-
Carlos Macias (@cmaciasjimenez) reported@SnazzyLabs Agree. When I unboxed mine and asked me to plug in for the first time I thought “ok setup” but a couple days later it asked me again for a fw update and that really surprised me. Xbox does it wirelessly without issue. This should be improved @Steam @OnDeck
-
SwimmingLink (@SwimmingLink) reported@Steam The Steam Mobile App crashes upon pulling up the 2FA prompt making it impossible to log in. Please fix.
-
👾アイリーン👾 (@Ladybug_bu) reported🫵😡 @grok @Steam @Steam_Support I made an account on EA App and another on Steam — everything went super smooth and easy. But on Steam I’ve got a problem: it won’t let me log into my account, saying I need to close my mom’s session, even though hers is already closed. I’m not sure if the issue is because I’m using my mom’s PC. When I try to log in on Steam from my phone, it says the password is invalid 😩🔒. I’ve already changed it three times through Steam Help Center and still nothing.
-
Beuk meuk (@tacticaltwitman) reported@Steam Hello steam, why is it so troublesome to change a password when you want to login to a new device? I managed to change it somehow. However i cannot login with this new password? Wtf is up with this?

PokeNeru (@PokeNeru_) reportedTFW I was trying to buy the Kingdom Hearts bundle on STEAM. It gave me an error that my address is wrong but it still charged me. Now I'm out $30 and no games... @Steam @Steam_Support help pleaseeeee
-
BYYONI (@BYYONI1) reported@CombateMonero @Steam Actually, this isn't the first time they've let me down. I remember during one of the Next Fests, my game only appeared on the page 3 days after the festival started, because there was some kind of error in the system and the game was invisible to everyone.
-
BABYLON 3013 (@FirewallEnigma) reported@Steam Oh, oh, help me @Steam, help me! I woke up today to face the harsh reality that Chrome decided to delete all my browser's saved passwords and login info! And you know what's even better?! I recovered everything, except for my Steam password !!

Maxie 🎮 Bloodstained | Visions of Mana | ONINAKI (@maxieaftermdnyt) reported@ZirraTGK That’s me in a nutshell. If not physically, I’ll be getting those games on @Steam. At least Steam has good customer service even though they also sell digital licenses (@GOGcom doesn’t really sell their games in my country sadly)
-
xi lan (@Xao_lanVT) reported@ImCadeYT @Steam You got a better deal because the Steam Machine isn’t reliable and has a lot of problems. The Deck, on the other hand, is reliable and portable to boot.
