Summary of Steam Problems 😠👌🔥

- The process of disabling and enabling the Steam Guard authenticator comes with a 15-day trade ban, which is too long and can cause inconvenience to users.

- The app does not have a "check out as guest" option, which can be frustrating for users who do not want to create an account.

- Users are required to spend at least $5 or load $5 to their wallet before they can add friends and send e-gift cards, which can be seen as a barrier to entry for some users.
