Having a unique issue where steam is not logging in for me. Its stuck on the logging pop up and stays like that. Is anybody else having this issue? I'm on Ubuntu, it was just working about 10 hours ago. I made and reverted a change thinking that's what caused it but that doesn't seem to be the case.

I had to run steam through terminal using the command: steam -tcp and got it to work.

It logs you out? that's annoying. I've logged in with the above command. As Emil mentioned, you can log in in offline mode then switch to online mode.

Yeah it's some kind of a disconnect that happens when I do or do not have internet connection.

But I can't log back in at er logging out. I basically have to restart
