Disable group invites?

I keep getting so many invites to groups, every day. I used to (Unfriend)+block everyone who sent me one but there's no point because its usually someone different every time and I'm not gonna pack my block list up.

It's irritating, I'm happy with the groups im in and I want to keep my list as minimal as possible.

I saw a thread from 2013 where no solution was found, maybe Valve has changed it since?

I have write a notice in my profil, but users don't read or ignore it. I have already contact Steam about that, the responsive is "add the suggestion in forum of the Steam client".

Group invites can not happen unless they are your Steam friend. Remove friends that spam you.

No, it's not possible. If someone is spamming you with group invites you can block them and that will stop them from inviting you.

Ohh I see, Shame you cant. I'm not talking about an individual spamming, I mean I get 10-15 invites a day to random new groups from different people.

It still keeps them from doing it over and over still. Some people have spammed me with insane amounts of group invites in a day. Blocking them solved it.

Yeah those free money idiots are pathetic. Don't know what to do smh!

Something that could help is being able to stop people being in a specified group from adding you. Group names can't be changed so the block is somewhat lasting.
