I've been waiting for this for many months, and Valve has finally fixed their Steam store filters to allow you to view only Upcoming games on SteamOS & Linux.

It's insane how long it actually took them to fix this. It was reported to them in March of last year on github, and it wasn't working for quite a while before then from what I remember.

This makes things a lot easier to sort our Release Calendar out, and for general users looking at what's coming.

Well done Valve for finally fixing it. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

Whew! I used to have to add "Windows" to the Upcoming filter to see Linux games (past page 1) then scan for the little round Steam circle. This is going to save a lot of time and squinting. A hearty huzzah, indeed.

Give it another year, and like this bug they may fix it...

I really wish they could fix the scaling for high resolution displays.
I have a 4k TV and can hardly see the words! I have to use a magnifying tool to use steam
(when not in big picture mode).

Not a perfect solution, but have you tried the Compiz "Enhanced Zoom" function? I made a 30s video about it a few years ago.

But yeah, c'mon Valve. That said, they've only been aware of this bug for 18 months, so realistically we've got a few years yet for any hope of a fix going by their current shameless bug fixing record.
