-
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.

ZeeLee3D (@zeelee3D) reported@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.

Young Thot Thot (@ShilohFlacko) reported@Studioaip @Steam Having the same issue
-
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.
-
الباز (@ALBAZ64) reported@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?
-
Dee Man Blanco (@TriniCreamHD) reportedhey @valvesoftware @Steam don't tell me to reset my password just for you to deny my login. fix this **** QUICKLY (e84/87)
-
Vernon Black (@veerrn) reported@Steam any idea when going to address 🤔 this outage you have with customers
-
CAPS LOCK (@CAPS_LOCK_ON_X) reportedSteam Road to Vostok Observation The game freezes for 1/2 a second to a second [approximate] every time I encounter a bandit UPDATE: This problem only seems to occur when an external monitor is used @Steam @Steam_Support @roadtovostok
-
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
-
Rogue Wolf (@Spi3000) reported@ImCadeYT @Steam Despite positivities from Steam Customer Service, Valve (from my experience) takes time for E-Mail or Support Ticket claims, usually a day's time. If you sent the E-Mail today, give it time. Until then grab every document you can, especially purchase information.

Animegal (@Animegirl259) reported@Steam fix the friends thing it says blocked for some reason
-
Kirjanek (@xK1rix) reported@AugustMMXXIII Holy dopamine in game hah @Steam @Steam_Support fix
-
Ⱡ₳₭Ɇ (@L337L4K3) reportedI think with all this bad @PlayStation news I'll keep adding games to my @steam account just in case they really don't fix any of this. Lol but I'ma still play & get games on both. & See what happens when next gen consoles comes out & see if they really will be a ghost town
-
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.
-
Mücadele'ye devam (@yigido50sekiz) reported@Steam I can't connect to the voice room; nothing about your system is stable. Whenever there's an update, a host of problems follows—when will a solution be found for this?
-
Morgan Devreaux (@MorganDevreaux) reportedHe is the most evil of evil and the most overpowered annoying dumb and stank character ever. #victorisoverparty because there’s no reason for him to exsist the way he does in this damn game. Because WHY does he have stank aura!! @valvesoftware @Steam @IntelDeadlock FIX THIS
-
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (@StoicStoic13) reported@Steam I haven’t been able to sign in to steam and it’s pretty ridiculous there’s no way to talk to support
-
Robert Stephenson (@CrakaLakaGetSum) reportedHey @Steam fix your stuff! I have funds in my wallet but can’t utilize them? Why? I’ve done all the steps listed but still won’t work. @Steam_Support
-
❕ (@howlverine) reportedthanks @Steam for sending me the same paraphrased copy & paste that completely ignores my explanation AND questions for the 2nd time. i thought i would have a good experience with your support service cause of how people glaze it all the time but oh well
-
Suxor99 (@suxor99) reportedConnected to @Steam but says i'm not when i play games. It must all be broken right now @Steam_Support
-

-
熨斗蘭(のしらん) (@Noshiran_game) reported@Steam_Support @Steam fix plz
-

✭🇬🇷Brendan🇬🇧✭ (@ValeKunDo) reported@Steam I signed out my account reset pw 3 times enter the right password and this **** won't let me sign in to my account
-
Beast of Bodmin (@WrastleFreak) reportedMy @UpholdInc card seems to not be working at more and more places since it's been renewed. Didn't work at @Steam and now not working with @DisneyPlus despite putting all the new details in. 🙄
-
Has/Been ਸਿੰਘ (@sashnextdoor) reported@Steam @Steam_Support I was trynna use faceit and was logged outta my account but I still had my credentials and it wasn't compromised. This has happened before and I vowed to never use their service again but when I logged into the steam the UI forced me to submit a stolen account HT-F7KX-36KU-68A8
-
Kiika (@IIKiikaII) reported@Steam FIX YOUR SERVERS PLEASE I CANT DOWNLOAD ANYTHING. CANT PLAY ANYTHING ONLINE. PLEASE TELL ME WHAT TO DO OR FIX THE SERVERS
-
Abandoned Account 🏴 🇬🇧 (@Abandac123) reported@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
-
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
-
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 *******
