Anything like this that happens on Tuesdays, it's usually due to Valve doing server maintenance shutdowns on those days, about this time each Tuesday.

Use this site, for example :

🛠 Steam is down for routine maintenance every Tuesday.

Should be about 7 PM EST USA each Tuesday and then hickups happen until everything is back up and running again.

Thank you also, and appreciate the nice replies.

I see at least two people on my friends list playing "< blank >" right now. I blame Maintenance Tuesday for becoming even worse than before.

I have a lot of that lately via my friendlist. Reassuring to see others are experiencing it as well (and it's not problem on my side), hope it's just Tuesday.

The update that happened about an hour ago seems to have fixed the blanks.
