Steam Error Code: -111

Hi everyone,

I've been experiencing a connection error with steam first time installing it, every time i open it and try to go to the store or account or anything else that requires a connection it gives an error code -111.
I did search online for an error code -111 and contacted steam support and i didn't find anything to fix it. i tried starting steam in the terminal but i didn't get any error in there  and i tried reinstalling it and other packages.

Hopefully someone can help with this problem :)

edit: I got steam kind of working, the pages don't load but I can bypass this by using the browser version of steam, I'm planning on using lutris anyway so it isn't that big of a deal anymore.
But help to get the client working again is welcome.

Are you using a proxy?

i tried using a proxy vpn or just my main connection but it still gives me the error -111, also referring to that steam post my system has no problems with ssl certificates.

Re: Steam Error Code: -111

It seems that steam error 111 is AccountNotFriends, "the user is not mutually friends".

I have no idea what that means as I don't use steam.
