MODERATORS
I have a Deck and one thing I learned pretty quick is that some devs will mark their game as Steam Deck Verified when it damn well is not. There are some games that struggle to run on the Deck but still have the green check, so I feel claims like this are highly misleading. Also there are some games that have no compatibility information at all yet work great.
Use protondb ratings.
There's a decky plugin that will show a steamdb badge on game pages (that also works as a shortcut to open the protondb page).
So it's actually a tester from valve who marks the game as supported or not, and then there are community reports to make sure the rating is accurate.
Maybe there are some games with 1 rating which is done by their developer.
Although that might only work for a few sales.
