Installed Steam on a new computer. Signed in. It sent a passcode to my GMail. I signed into GMail. It wanted me to 2FA because I hadn't signed into Google on that device. It sent a notification to my phone, which I never received. I had it resend the notification twice, still nothing. Tried again with my phone's offline passcodes. Neither worked. Tried the QR code/Bluetooth connection, and that finally did it.

At least I got through in the end, but fuck, it's annoying.

I feel this. I was trying to set up and test sso on my phone using my usb-c Yubikey, and holy hell the UI for using the Yubikey on android is hot fucking garbage. The keyboard keeps popping up and blocking essential page elements I need to interact with, when I try to enter the pin for the yubikey the authentication request times out.

After several failed attempts I scrapped the whole idea.

Edit: removed redundant words.
