2022, still Steam-Discord linking account problems.

[IceThorn]

And i'm pretty sure it's not discord side since I had no problem with youtube and twitch links.
I tried however to reinstall both, to link them thru the webpage.
Any other suggestion? May it be the authenticator the source of the problems?

Through what web page?

the discord one.
From the settings you can link steam and discord accounts.
There's a way to do this from the steam one? If there is, i can't find it :(
For what I do, it's useful to me for people see on discord what i'm playing and if i'm streaming and not being able to link them is a hassle.

There's none. This whole linking stuff is fine from the other end. There's no entry on my Steam account about my EGS account ring linked to this Stea account but there's an entry in my EGS account about my Steam account.

Talk to whoever runs Discord, it's up to them to fix that.

There no discord linking via Steam, but there probably Steam linking via discord which I think there was, or still is, I don't remember if discord remove it, or kept it.

it's still there because i'm factually trying to link them.
I can do it with every social but steam.

if that's the case how comes i can link up every other account? I've linked youtube, twitch and twitter. No problem. Just steam has.
I mean: it's a matter of simple truth table matter. For discord to be the problem it would mean no other accounts could be linked to discord but factually just steam has problems.
As you said: you linked EGS to discord without problems, right? This means it's not a problem discord side.
My steam account is kinda old tho, may it be the problem? That it's on an old forgotten database? Or may it be geolocation problem?
I've tried from phone, PC, a second PC but nothing.

Someone from Discord has to fix that.

First nswer is a random pre-baked answer about "how my installation has gone wrong" even if i said them that i tried on 2 PC, different browsers on both and the smartphone...

You probably don't want to link it anyways. Too many scammers that see you have a Steam account will try to phish you.

i actually need it, it's different.
and for scammers: i tell people all day long (useless) how to avoid them as job but thanks for the warning :)

[IceThorn]

They keep making me try different discord versions but the problem persists. Imho it's a problem between Discord and Steam due the 2FA.

You should avoid linking your Steam to Discord, it just makes you a target for scammers. If you do, turn off messaging outside of people you've friended, or altogether preferably.

"Need"? If you're a content creator, you can just list it in an FAQ Channel of your own discord.

All you had to do was connect, and login that was it.

1. Visit https://steamcommunity.com/ via browser, and login to your Steam account.

2. launch Discord, and login, > Settings > connections > click on Steam icon > it open your broswer, and you click login.

That was it. If issue keep going this is a discord problem they have to fix themselves.

That's exactly what I did. Still nope.
