How to hide Windows only games in the Steam Store (lemmy.world)

Hello everyone,

I would like to hide games that only support Windows, as I'll never buy any of those games.

Is there a simple way to do that? I found a checkbox in my account settings but it doesn't seem to have much effects.

Thank you very much and happy gaming

No problem!

Well, at least that one works. Though gotta remind this: There are games in Linux category and they suppose to work as a native game however a handful of games don't work at all due to their one time Linux port by another studio. Usually using Proton fix this issue but this is not something you want so take this as an advice and check the game on ProtonDB and see if the native version of the game you wanna buy works correctly. Also there are many cases of games that using Proton runs better than their native version.
