This worked for me:

I went to a Starbucks,
Started a live-boot USB,
Got on the public WiFi for their public IP (valve,
Put in a simple login email,
Received the email, and confirmed it with the link they provided from a
cell phone on a VPN,
Made a password of about 20 characters with upper/lowercase letters,
spaces, and an exclamation point, I think it was ..? on the redirected
page on my laptop,
Got logged off, so logged in, again, on the PC.
and account, I had!

Not sure if this is something worth the trouble to do for most people
who are not conveniently there, but... it worked.


moin moin,

the SteamDeck looks great. Valve has done a lot to work with Linux and
Free Software even putting out info on how to modify the SteamDeck if you
can get one.

The first step to get a SteamDeck is to setup an account in order to order one.

But, the signon hasn't been working for me.

I keep getting "The password you entered is not allowed. Plea
se select a
different password, with at least 8 characters."

Y'all know I would not default to something less than dozens of
characters, so a short password is not the problem.

I've tried with reduced special characters, without special characters,
with only 8 characters and many, many other things.

All the support options for valve presume you have an account, so not way
of contacting them. If this is what their customer support is like then
they really suck even if they are supporting Free Software.

I allowed all the JavaScript, cookies and crap and it still doesn't work.
I created a container and installed chromium and it still doesn't work.

I'm tired of working for free for Valve, but I'd really like to get a
steamdeck for kidling.

Has anyone craeted a new account recently and knows the secret to getting
their site to work or getting them to actually respond?

ciao,
