Apparently, this is a browser extension (well, a script for a browser extension), so it works when you browse the Steam catalog through your web browser, but not through their client. Or did I miss anything?
Correct, that's what I meant to imply in the first part of my comment. When I research new games I do that from a web browser and that's when I care about Proton status the most so this works great for that. It does not help when using the Steam client.
Thanks. You even did specify you used it from a browser, I wasn't paying attention, sorry.

Right, so they did. Silly me. Thanks.
