With SteamOS Linux from Valve about to expand onto devices other than the Steam Deck, like the upcoming Lenovo Legion Go S, Valve just announced a SteamOS Compatibility rating system.

    I wish I could have protondb badges inside the desktop steam client.

    Would be nice if this worked with linux in general.

      If you install Decky there’s a plugin that does exactly this that can be installed from the plugin manager (https://github.com/OMGDuke/protondb-decky)

        I want this on my desktop, and not just in big picture mode. I already know it can be done on the deck.

      There’s a plugin for SteamOS that does this, I’m on Bazzite and it works very well.

        In desktop mode, on the desktop client, outside big picture mode?

      You can’t? Every time I play a game the library page gives me the option to weigh in if the rating was valid, and to leave feedback if it wasn’t.

        I think that only applies to still unfinished ratings. Once it’s done, it’s done

        Gloomhaven for example doesn’t launch at all. But there’s no way to report this. Even the support couldn’t help

          No, it will say something like “Valve’s testing has this game rated as Steam Deck Verified. Does that match your experience?”

          Some games have been delayed from verified because enough people responded “no”.

            yes. But I’ve never seen this on already verified games. There is no way to report “this game shouldn’t be verified anymore. Or at least re-checked”

              I get it all the time, usually after I play a new game for the first time. It will either say that Valve doesn’t have info on this game yet and ask if it works or not, or it will ask me to confirm whether the existing verified rating is accurate or not.

              It only asks one time per game in my experience, and I think you may have had to previously agree to provide feedback on the Steam Deck experience…

          Why would it ask you on desktop if the game was Steam Deck compatible?
