Really? It takes ages to open for me.

Few seconds, steam takes longer. And I’ve never had login issues too.

Is it from linked accounts or privacy clearing techniques?

Weird, steam is so much faster for me. And I don’t do anything strange, just log in and use it, but almost every single time it asks for my password. I wonder if there’s a timer - like, if you don’t log in for a week, you have to give your credentials again?

Even without re-entering my credentials or actually completely closing and opening EGS within (reasonably waiting for all related processed to close first) a few seconds, it opens and loads/downloads my library content very late compared to Steam or GOG. Opening the store as default was actually worse.

So far all my friends have the same experience. The top commenter must be very lucky, or maybe their EGS program runs in the background at startup.

Epic

Steam

Like I get I have few issues from the newness and overkill, but credentials shouldn’t be a hardware issue, and sometimes new components do weird things loading wise. My old 2600k did things better than newer chips for years.

Edit, I wonder if internet speed matters, I’ve got gig internet.

Interesting to see this discussion because I don’t use epic because I don’t play many games outside of TF2 and space engineers and I more or less just use steam to auto update blender and tell me how my PC is doing so all I experienced is steam taking about a half minute to open every time.
