    @Dark_Astro123 @Steam In my own opinion i will say the support team shows no interest in helping out. My account was having same issue also and I’ve laid complaints and still nothing from them, luckily i saw some recommendations about #scottfix01 on instagram Told him about the issue he got it fixed

    @valvesoftware @Steam gonna fix this? anyone can brick their steam deck if they run literally 2 commands and reboot (I won't put them here)

    Thank you @Steam for a timely and hassle-free refund on Jedi Survivor. And to anyone else considering it: that game is broken as hell, AVOID on PC until it's fixed...if it ever is.

    @Steam I’m not sure why I can’t sign in to my steam account through the app, but it is starting to get real frustrating especially when there is no support inquiry for something like this. Please do something and fix

    @RedmiAkash @iiamcloudman @Steam It would be an app... Having it run on the OS wouldn't be a problem.

    @Steam @valvesoftware There’s a major glitch in the new version of Steam on PC that causes the program to open the window at system startup instead of just opening at the system tray. When will the crucial, immediate patch come to fix this??????????????????

    Friend of mine just lost valuable items in their @Steam inventory because someone from their friends list sent what seemed like an innocent message with what looked like an official link. The hacker captured his Steam login AND bypassed 2FA. Be warned!

    @Steam been trying to get ahold of support for a while now about an account issue would be really nice if I got a message back

    @Steam Hi. I can't login to my account via browser. I'm sure that I use the correct password because I changed it. Please help.

    @Dark_Astro123 @Steam i was really pissed when i had similar issues, support did not take any serious step about my complains, I wrote them and many tickets were left unattended I was recommended to #scottfix01 on instagram He got mine fixed within some minutes

    @Steam you guys really are great. Thank-you for the refund from my own stupidity. Second time now and you never give me a problem. 👍

    @dropanet @Steam Same, i keep having to Exit Steam and reopen all the time. Dunno if its related but my steam app keeps completely lagging out and freezing for like a solid minute any time I close any steam game (even with my ram/gpu/cpu hardly reach 40-50% usage each at those times). 😮‍💨

    @Steam @Starlink hear me out… tall two team up and make a steam deck that can access Starlink service for an extra charge and advertise gaming anywhere! That’s a billion dollar idea for free!

    Man, this needs removed from @Steam if purchasing doesn't even enable you to play single-player mode. If it's tied to the DRM, @Ubisoft can fix easily enough bypassing the failstate.

  • TaKenR6
    TaKen .00223 (@TaKenR6) reported

    @followthenut @PortalDiver @Steam just add it on the store page thru ur account details instead of thru the game you’re purchasing it from, that’s been my fix for a while but it’s definitely an annoying workaround

    @Steam I’m not sure why I can’t sign in to steam through the mobile phone app but it is getting extremely frustrating especially when there is no support for something like this. Fix immediately

    @EA @Steam @StarWars tried every possible fix to get #Battlefront2 working on my PC, nothing works. This is your trash, fix it. It's not an issue on my end, and I paid you. Do better.

    Just wanted to play something Fortnite goes down for 6 hours. Thought I'll just play counter strike GO for nostalgia but @Steam just won't let me login. I go to forgot password there the page asks my email and then I get an error for captcha there was no captcha on screen. WTF!

    @The_VR_Gamer_ @Steam slapping "final release" on a product is not going to make it magically perform 1000x better these are problems inherent with turning your app from native to chromium-based

    @AfaqKhan2001 @Steam I had similar problems,I've made several appeals to support system over and over but no help was rendered until I was referred to #seetecch on Instagram they helped me fix my account they can help you too I admit he's good and legit i think such consistency makes him the best

    .@Steam and IPv6-only networks is also **** show. 1. It fails to login and claims it has no network connectivity. Select offline mode then try to switch online, it half way switches online. Then you could buy games, but not download nor play... 2. Ok, so configure a proxy, right?
