There is no such limit, you can even set the bookmarks on https://mods.factorio.com/library/bookmarks in the browser.

How do you know Steam has anything to do with it? Can you provide an error message screenshot? I find your claim hard to believe. It makes no sense at all. It would make more sense if you claimed the opposite, that you need a verified purchase on your Factorio.com account. And if you had a Steam purchase then you could get a Factorio.com-key, and vice versa, so there's no issue anyways. The mod portal at mods.factorio.com has nothing to do with Steam so Steam can't have anything to do with your issue. Sounds like PEBCAK to me.cybersteve547 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 22, 2024 11:43 pmnope, i need factorio on steam to do that - i was suggesting removing that limit there.Loewchen wrote: ↑Mon Jul 22, 2024 11:05 pm There is no such limit, you can even set the bookmarks on https://mods.factorio.com/library/bookmarks in the browser.

It's showing that the account you are logged in with does not own a license to the game. This has nothing to do with steam.

Do you own the game for PC, or only for Switch?

The mod library is the only soft drm existing for factorio. Since no mods are coming to switch ever, you either pirated the game, or don't really need those in-portal bookmarks.cybersteve547 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 23, 2024 3:53 pmonly on switch, but i would still like to have basically a wishlist of mods.
Since you are not loading them into the game, there is no functional difference to making a browser bookmark, which imo is a reasonable thing to do.
