A new Steam Deck Beta Client update was released with a few fixes here and there. The system that manages subscribed Steam Workshop items that need to be updated has been reworked, and mouse coordinates for input-only streaming via Remote Play have been fixed. We can also now see Steam Machine and SteamOS compatibility in game pages on the Steam Deck in their own tabs.
You can download the update yourself in the System Settings on the Steam Deck. Make sure your update channel is set to Beta or Preview.

As mentioned before, this does not have to be visible for all users. Especially since their rating is not really helpful the most of the time. I think a Steam Deck and an Overall SteamOS rating would be enough while I do not see much use for a dedicated Steam Machine Rating. Why we don't have a Steam Deck LCD and a Steam Deck OLED rating separate since it seems some games are running far better on the OLED (I just have the LCD version)
While I personally do not have that much of an issue with it and ignore it the most of the time because I am using ProtonDB I understand that some others would think this is annoying especially if you're not using a Steamdeck and or SteamMachine (I love my SteamMachine but I still do not need the rating)
But especially for non experienced people using it, it can be really confusing when many games are just listed as not supported or unknown. So they should work with ProtonDB to integrate their rating without Deckt Loader in my Opinion
Annoyingly enough, this change was rolled out to EVERYONE and not just Steam Deck users on the Steam Deck client. Now every single game in the store has different symbols giving the status of compatibility (90% aren't compatible or unknown), despite me not owning nor ever planning to own a Steam Deck. Now it's just pointless clutter that junks up the store tiles. Hopefully they revert the change or allow users to toggle the visibility of it.
I see. Does it get in the way for you or do you just dislike the clutter for devices you don't ever plan to own?
