Should there be a way to remove Steam removed groups?
yup, these are some different category groups, never thought about it that way, I remember early days of Payday 2 that the gave away couple skins if you join their group (but as far as I remember then those groups weren't indeed normal groups but you had to give them follow at Community page)

quite weird indeed, especially if they don't display them in Steam why send out through API
well okay, if there is that data in db then by it should be advanced option for endpoint (ofc I haven't used Steam API so can't be sure about anything)

Not sure but it can be revoked at any time and a new one generated.

it needs an api key because it uses this Steamworks Web API:
https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/webapi/ISteamUser#GetUserGroupList
looking at the code, it seems perfectly safe (haven't tried it myself yet)

haha sure, but the api key is never shared and only used to call the Steam API function, the source code is right there to inspect ;)
btw the script asks for the api key once then stores it in local storage for convenience, so you would want to also click the "Remove current Steam API Key" button which the scripts provides.

The readme file has some relevant links too

It is possible that the site only matches users when they first joined SG and doesn't check afterwards so it just continues to add up. However the list doesn't include the people I temporarily added so I can send them gifts. Perhaps it also requires sync with API.

Anyone knows what this group might be about? https://www.steamgifts.com/group/RcfkU/364430

seems like some very early testing thing https://steamdb.info/app/364430/history/

Ohh I remember what that is. It was some hidden Valve test app that had a cat picture in the thumbnail, that's why I had it - so I could have a cat pic on my profile. I have no way to remove it now, sadly

I thought about doing little cleaning my Steam groups through Steamgifts, but appears that I have 61 groups listed in here, yet only 50 at Steam. After checking some groups, seems like Steamgifts still have page with data, yet inaccessible in Steam due latter removeing for rules violation - "This group has been removed for violating the Steam Community Rules and Guidelines."
EDIT: during NoSenses provided solution I also discovered that Steamgifts includes game groups as well (for me Payday 2 and Rust)
