Comment on Options for a controller for steam deck

What sort of configurations are you looking to do with the controller that Steam Input wouldn’t cover? Cause if you don’t actually need specific features from the 8bitdo config software, it works just fine with Linux. In fact, I’m using one right now, and have been using it for years.

Well it’s mainly I play games with steam off for more performance (yes I know it’s little to none but still) and back buttons, changing the LEDs and updating the controller, plus I’m trying to find accessories that have software that is Linux compatible, basically I want everything I have to be natively working on Linux, software and all.

Ahh that’s gonna be a real hard find.
I thought OpenRGB would be able to give some starting point so I looked it up, but there’s a grand total of 11 supported gamepads, half of which are the PS controllers. So we’re out of luck there.
