Honestly, the whole user/community aspect of Steam is garbage. Discussion forums are just back and forth fights between people about random things like game issues without anyone trying to solve the actual issue. The screenshots/art whatever section is just softcore porn of the game characters and the main screenshots/art section that covers all games is just a hub for wallpaper engine crap.
The guides section is the worst. Its all just stupid meme shit like "How to start the game" or "how to walk forward".
The workshop section CAN be decent but posters just select all tags for their items so searching by category is useless and there is no rule enforcement to prevent that.
I've been a steam user since the start and have a steam deck. Their linux support is really good but thats it.
Oh and trolls and bullies commenting on your profile just don't seem to ever get banned nomatter what horrific shit they post.
I think this varies. Different games, different communities.
