This is what I get for switching from Ubuntu to mint and trying to use steam.

    I wish they would just use a standard otp algorithm and I could easily use any auth app instead of a dedicated one

      KeepassXC (a PC application) has a preset for Steam OTP parameters, if your Android/iOS app of choice allows you to use non-standard parameters I guess it should be possible to use them?

      The only somewhat painful part for me was actually getting the OTP secret.

        Thank you for this tip! I saw your comment and I checked my 2FA app, Aegis, and it has a “Steam” option as well!

        (When creating an entry, you can just select “Type: Steam” instead of “TOTP”)
