I've made a userscript to add game tier (Linux compatibility/playability state) from ProtonDB to games in giveaways.

I made it for myself (because I'm lazy to open ProtonDB every time I see something interesting in giveaways), but I guess It can be useful for Linux users to help check games playability without searching each game on ProtonDB.

Script is compatible with

  • ESGST addon (only in a list-view mode, not a grid-view),
  • "DarkReader" addon.

Does not seem to work for me :(
Console wrote: [SteamGifts: ProtonDB info] App loaded (version: 1.0.0.1) and that's it :(
Chrome 96 on Xubuntu 21.10

Edit: found the issue -> it does not work with query filters :( i usually browse only level 5+. if i remove filter, it works

Thanks for letting me know :)
The script detects home page as

location.pathname == '/'

I added a fix for the address with giveaways/search. Now it should work.

This is so handy, thank you for sharing it!

It is not useful on SG but as a side note in case anyone is not aware: there is also something similar for the Steam store as well that might come in handy while browsing Steam itself.

When opening giveaway page it freezes whole browser (but after showing the badge, lol). So far was unable to find the culprit, since debugger also freezes.
EDIT: seems to be caused by some conflict with my version of ESGST. Probably I need to update.

Tried with latest ESGST (8.9.4, userscript variant). Still freezes on giveaway page (page with giveaways list works without issues). Guess I'll have to use some of more simple scripts instead...

I think the trouble is conflict with some option(s) of ESGST. For example, my script does not work with Grid View of ESGST. Guess there are another incompatible options, but ESGST have too much options to check them all :(

Probably so, but I'm too lazy to check them one-by-one(

ESGST.

This userscript only shows Linux (and in most cases SteamDeck) compatibility of the game.
