i_smerger (@i_smerger) reportedhey @Steam fix your ****** *** custom server servers
-
JohnnyHelldiver (@hiles_johnathan) reportedOi @Steam can’t login or view friends list or games list on the app or the desktop app
-
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.

BOOTZ999 (@BOOTZ999) reported@Lenovo if you don't hurry on the patch for your bios update, 100% of @Steam user can take you to small claims court if they allow data tracking for their Lenovo legion go's. And I never agreed to your terms of service on steam OS 3.8(non existent) That's $2230CAD MSRP... Idiots

X|1MantisPhoenix (@1mantisphoenix) reportedSony should refund people that they take media away from, OR let them ultimately ∞ be able to access it like they paid for, when they bought it in the first place. Look at @Steam for good models of digital ownership. When a game leaves the store, it's no longer purchasable for new players. BUT< anyone that previously purchased that, can play it till they're sick of it. Blackouts will starve gamers, maybe even help them quit gaming... I doubt Sony is going to change their minds... but they can at least give 2TB/4TB nvme's for the prices they're going to expect in the future, and thanks to the size of games down the line too... There's too many sides to this to really bive one definitive solution or answer... but it should start with good online digital store etiquette to help counter the problem they're creating. Monopolies all suck. I hate publisher prices for my region on Steam, but Steam still lets me activate games that I get keys for outside of Steam. The grey market is my second home and steam is the platform to collect the achievements, the cards, the badges, etc. Thanks for that Gabe Newell

silbirobi (@silbirobi) reported@fopsy74 @Steam @Steam_Support Can confirm, same problem 😬

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)
-
Formal Gangster (@FormalgangsterK) reported@PlayApex I can’t buy apex coins for some reason. Steam won’t authorize. You might see if there’s a fix you guys could make with @Steam @Steam_Support I just want to support a game and a couple of companies I love 🫶🏻💙
-
StockStackr (@VeganCatBounce) reported@Steam I understand security but I will not digit code press your captchas. I guess I can't play War of Rights cause you are more intersted in farming my data than providing me a service?
-
Whozae ✨️ (@whozae) reported@EA @Steam Like yeah makes sense to Ban the customer when THERE IS NO POSSIBLE WAY TO REACH A ******* HUMAN BEING NOR SUBMIT A FORM FOR AN ISSUE THATS "Invalid license. We're sorry, an error has occurred." DAWG! THIS ISSUE HASNT BEEN FIXED FOR SO MANY YEARS! @FTC need to start fine-ing you *******

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.

Dan Abrenica (@Dan_Abrenica) reported@MattyDanner @Steam Hello @MattyDanner, I have a question, if Jose and Panchito have a angry issue and sent there near the water. Will there be 2 Big Reflections of Jose and Panchito's counterparts or just the same reflection as the same order to Devil Donald as he splits himself into a few devils.

Utkarsh Sai Sidhardh K (@Utkarsh_sai_K) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam I’ve purchased quite a few games through Steam and have supported many Ubisoft titles over the years. Gaming is something I rarely get time for, and I usually only play when I have a longer period to properly relax. That’s why this situation has been particularly overwhelming and disappointing. I currently can’t access games I’ve paid for, and it has also made me hesitant to purchase any more Ubisoft titles until this issue is resolved. I genuinely hope someone can help me get this sorted.

how to talk to your dog about doomscrolling (@theangrylisas) reported@GabeNewell @valvesoftware @Steam DoD:S was probably my favorite game ever. The leaked source has a bug in it. The overhead achievement loop breaks on the first unlocked badge, meaning anyone who gets them all is locked to the rifleman badge. Give me repo access and I’ll fix it.

Willem (@willemt1981) reported@GamingCentral26 The subscription isn't the issue. It's ownership and recovery. Digital libraries only work if verified owners can regain access after a compromise. @Steam has shown this is possible for years.
