Not really possible anymore, you'll be put back to your OG region at some point. Only thing that works is to create a separate account and family share it, but tbh, might as well pirate it at that point.
PC: Yes. Console: No.

Well it is still possible, just risky. If you get banned you lose access to buying/activating new games and online gaming on Steam servers iirc, plus some other stuff. You still can download and play the games you had before.
In Europe I'd choose the Ukrainian store TBH. It's more believable, and you can still buy UAH gift cards.
Also: it's no longer possible to Family share accounts from different countries. Definitely does not work on Argentinian accounts, maybe it works between regions with the same prices.

Missed that they also patched that out with the new family sharing. Just sail the high seas then. It was fun while it lasted. I've been to Erdoganmen, then Chainsawmen, and then tried Ukraine but Steam keeps putting me back to original country. I've given up.

Old accounts should still work until you trip a flag. Which is why TF2 keys are probably the safest , though not infallible.

you can switch to UA region (guy via discord, legit) and then top up with gift cards from certain regions which you can get cheap on websites like eneba et al

Kaldaien - maker of the special k tool (tools that injects into games to change textures, give better performance etc) deletes his 20 years old steam account.
He is recommending ubisoft+, xbox gamepass, epicgamestore and gog instead.
Why you ask?
Because steam breaks dual sense compatibility, bumps up requirements of old games that were originally win 98 games etc.
Here is the full post:

Weird imo

I mean, some of what he says is fine, and gog has always been much better than steam for older games.
I don't know what to say about compatibility with win98 games... You're not running win98 anyway at this point, I don't understand what he means by that.

Lol you don't own games on Steam and you have no rights to them so... buy supscription based access to other malware where you don't own game, the game can disappear any moment, you have restricted modding capabilites and limited library.

And this is new how? It's the same as it was in 2004 when Steam launched.

Gotta put a stop to listening to third parties when it comes to stuff like this. Probably empty threats anyway as there is lots of money in steam.

Of course it is a mistake just like any censorship pointed in the direction has been in the past.
But the gaming media is just now suddenly jumping on the anti-censorship bandwagon, the sole reason being that they see their precious queer and LGBTQ+ perversions coming in the crosshairs.
Previously censorship was just fine and necessary as long as it targeted anything straight males like.
Gaming sites like EG publish articles about problematic sex games that perpetuate misogyny on Steam a few weeks ago and demand them to be removed. The companies read it, start to crack down and now the journos back-paddle in panic because it may affect LGBTQ representation...classic self-own.
