    Okay, let's say there's currently no native support for normal TOTP, mostly because Steam doesn't give you access to your TOTP key.

    That much I can agree with at this point.

    Actually, it's arguably even worse - it's not that Steam doesn't support normal TOTP, it's that Steam goes out of their way to prevent TOTP from being used without switching to an entirely new algorithm.

      Could be worse. GOG's approach is super annoying, and a lot of platforms (like fucking Apple) actually require the use of insecure and invasive SMS verification. And as far as I know Steam hasn't been hit with any data breaches since 2011.

          Thanks, and added.

          Although it would have been nice if I could "upgrade" from email based 2step instead of having to disable it.

                Their platform is really outdated. Can’t even edit or remove a game review without contacting support. It’s dumb. They’re losing precious time because of this

                the store is a losing proposition right now from CDPR perspective. I am just happy to have a different place I can buy games that's not steam

                    Do you consider Itch.io to be a viable platform ??

                      They'll need to put more effort into it. Make their APIs more open & maybe even fund Wine ?

                      Oh & DEFINITELY bring Galaxy 2.0 to linux, NATIVELY

                        How? I can't get it to give me the TOTP key, it just asks me to download their stupid app.

                          We can’t even edit the cookies section in their app or website and GOG is EU company btw, it’s bonkers!

                            I'd love that but don't get your hopes up, they can only do one small change every few years. You're asking them for at least 3 centuries of dev time

                                It's sad, because I'm sure they could fix all of this easily and get a lot of profit from GOG, but they prefer to spend their time elsewhere for some reason
