  PaLM AI - $PALM (@palmaierc) reported 2 minutes ago

  Major 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.

  @ManthosLappas This is why @valvesoftware and @Steam desperately need to revamp the review system. It's so broken, and the binary up or down leaves no room for truth. This reviewer is also weak, just don't leave a review if it's not your kind of game. "I hate seafood, and I really didn't like the lobster dish that I chose to order" is absolutely worthless to everyone. We need a neutral button for reviewers who think they're helping the devs with feedback (you should join their discord instead), and people like this that just want to hear themselves talk.

  @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.

  @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.

  Roll The Bones launch update: we have to delay the launch due to an unresolved issue on @Steam and the fact that @Steam_Support hasn't responded to us for 10 days. Not sure about the delay, I hope it's just an hour or two, but unfortunately @valvesoftware is unresponsive.

  @Howard_Lovy cc @pensandpoison might want to pick up on this. Remember how you stated literature was entirely taken over by the libs? Yeahhhh, this is another huge symptom of that. How is there not a @Steam - like service for creative works, such as literature, webcomics, etc.?

  @Steam I can't create a Ubisoft Connect account — every attempt fails with "An error occurred while trying to send your request" — so I can't play the Ubisoft games I bought on Steam. Ubisoft has ignored my DM and public post since July 11. Am I eligible for refunds?

  @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.

  @ItzPuddleJumper @Steam Steam deck uses steam os which uses arch Linux as a base,Arch is a cutting edge rolling operating system so updates can break it usually they put the fix for it on archs website.

  @Steam why is your site infected with a phiishing file? Why is your login system and support system not working? Why has this been going on for over a week.

  I 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

  @PlayStation Change the laws so we own digital games, movies and music we purchase If you want a digital future then we own what we buy and can trade it just like a disc and you’re forced to provide this service otherwise you, @XBOX and @Steam can all go to hell

  @Zoroarts @Steam You have 1 level what do you expect.... make a longer game can't expect everyone to play for an hour and keep it. Come on its not steams issue.. I have been making games for over 26 years alone. Can't complain if someone beats it in the 2 hours. Thats on you not @Steam

  I am not able to sign in to my steam account even after changing my password 3 times successfully. And there is no option to reach out to steam for issue on the website. It only leads to same landing page for changing the password. @Steam @Steam_Support

  Sammy Snivels (@john_baker7) reported 37 minutes ago

  @flatspritehits @QNDZYcom @Steam Thats because steam doesnt own the game either, once a game is unavailable or shut down steam can only issue you a refund out of their pocket, they cant charge the developer. The main reason is not because they want to keep you money, but because bots buy shut down games to scam

  @Dexerto While @Steam's refunding system is the gold standard for consumers, it's not without its issues. There should be additional rules on the length of gameplay. Like, if u reach 1/4 of the game or the 2 hour window. That's fair. @Steam_Support

  Sony 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
