Description

Hello, I'd like to integrate Steam, but I'm not sure if it's possible as Steam API uses OpenID 2.0 (not OpenID Connect). It would get just the user's openid.

Research direction
Investigate how hello.js handles OAuth2 providers (see src/ modules) and compare with Steam's OpenID 2.0 flow. Review comment threads for any proposed approaches. Check if there is an existing PR or fork that implements Steam integration. Consider adapting OAuth2 adapter for OpenID 2.0 or using a separate strategy.
