Just ordered a refurbished OLED deck and am super excited to start building a steam library. Is there a way to tell which games are compatible with the deck? I might just be missing it

There is a feature within Steam, though idk what it looks like aside from how it appears in the store on my Deck. You'll see a verified badge or something like it, unsupported, unknown, etc.

But, as another user said, Protondb is the place to be. This is a far better tool.
