ProtonDB for Steam

Adds the ProtonDB rating to games in the Steam store so you get an idea of how it will run before you buy it!

ProtonDB for Steam is a handy Chrome extension that adds ProtonDB ratings directly to Steam game pages. This allows Linux gamers to quickly assess how well a game will run using Proton before purchasing. The extension displays Proton compatibility badges alongside native Linux availability, offering a seamless way to make informed game buying decisions.

Built on manifest v3, ProtonDB for Steam requires optional permissions to access protondb.com and store.steampowered.com for fetching ratings data. The project is open-source and available on GitHub, with credits to MostwantedRBX for founding it. Ideal for gamers seeking Linux compatibility info on Steam, this extension enhances the browsing experience with essential ProtonDB insights.

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

ProtonDB for Steam requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
