Interesting. I do have a steam account, haven't used it for a long time, it doesn't seem to be in my password manager
So I went to reset my password, but got thwarted by the captcha. To email me a password reset link.
I think Ill just torrent it.

To add to the problem, there are numerous "solutions" about flushing DNS caches, disabling IPv6, using the audio CAPTCHA, and other tricks that just did not work for me. I tried every "solution" in a dozen threads until the mobile suggestion finally worked.
EDIT: I was not using a VPN or proxy
I’ve had situations in the past where I tried 10-20 times to complete captcha and it just kept throwing one after the other at me. Whereas when I am at home and not using VPN I always complete every captcha in like one or two attempts.
it's a stiff price to pay for getting around the data science medium articles that require a sign up, and then an app, and then a subscription.
It's also a free giveaway so it's more like grabbing some of the free tasting samples without approval.
Nonsense like captchas only hurt legitimate users, and when those captchas are asking you time and time again it's simply not worthwhile. Had I wanted to actually spend good money on a game they would have lost a sale, and for what -- to stop a robot asking for a password reset email to an existing account?
Steam is also dropping support for older operating systems - ones that you originally used to buy your games. That is also NOT perfectly fine.
Were you looking for a soapbox to stand on?
...how?
