I think I'd still prefer to use a 3rd-Party TOTP app but at least Steam's app adds some value by pushing a notification when you login.
Steam is okay in my book because steam was the OG 2FA provider. They forced 2FA on everyone, all the way back in 2007, they took security seriously before anyone else really cared. So, they're grandfathered in.
You can use Steam with a regular third-party TOTP authenticator, here's a guide on how to set it up: https://help.ente.io/auth/migration-guides/steam/
