Steam Library 'What's New' Yeeter script

What's this?

  • This is a bash script for Linux systems that hides the annoying "What's New" section from your Steam Library based on MateusAuri's Windows script

How do I use it?

  2. Naviagte to "steamui\css"
  3. Copy this script into the "css" folder (it should be in the same folder as "chunk~2dcc5aaf7.css")
  4. Open a terminal in this directory (in my case /home/[user]/.steam/steam/steamui/css/)
  5. Run the following command in the terminal: bash SteamWhatsNewYeeter.sh
  6. (Optional) Set up a cronjob to run the script regularly:
    1. In the same terminal, run the command crontab -e
    2. using your favorite editor, add the following line to the end of your crontab: 0 12 * * * bash /home/[user]/.steam/steam/steamui/css/SteamWhatsNewYeeter.sh
    3. Save and close the file
