Comment on YouTube is now flagging accounts on Premium family plans that aren't in the same household
sfjvvssss@lemmy.world 2 weeks agoHow do you add new people? I tried and a prompt told me that we don’t seem to share a household.

That’s the old way of handling it. (And I think it still works.) They have a new implementation that’s just the family group admin sending an invite and the recipient accepting.

Which only works If you were in the same Network atleast for me

After I made my comment I saw someone else make a comment about getting a message saying that. I never did. Mine just worked. Weird.

If one changes their password afterwards, will the share persist? Old Steam family sharing broke after changing the passwords.

Should still work. Not 100% sure tbh

I had that error a couple of times, and it inexplicably resolved itself. Try having the person join again (which may require a new invite). I think only 1 out of 4 members of my family were able to join without that initial error message. This was back when Steam had just switched how they handled family sharing, so I assumed it was just an implementation bug of some sort. One of my friends took three attempts before they could join, but it worked ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Though I will note that steam family sharing no longer works if the person is located in another country for the purposes of Steam billing region (so my Norwegian friend could not join my UK family)
