You seem to be having a lot of problems here:

https://direct.playstation.com/en-us/buy-accessories/playstation-link-usb-adapter

Low latency, lossless audio, pretty sure rumble works.

And NO DRIVER outside of the standard USB hid and audio.

How is this hard to understand?

this is not bluetooth.

Neither is the xbone dongle, as you argued.

The difference is: The dongle uses all the normal standards, and doesn't need a kernel driver like the msft piece of shit.

no, I said;

No one has done bluetooth right because you can’t do bluetooth right here.

so you have me mistaken with someone else. Also, im not sure I appreciate why does it matter if a driver is in /hid or /input/joystick in this regard?

If you need a dedicated driver anyways, what is the difference between them?

[–] InvertedParallax@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

My point is that the PS link doesn't need a dedicated driver, why does this one?

[–] drwankingstein@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

yeah, but pslink does still require hid/playstation. this is an newer replacement to joystick/xpad with more features. IMO that is more or less roughly the same there.

[–] InvertedParallax@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago

Hid is what should be required.

There are a million standards already here, I'd they really want to they can extend hid or something.

This is just a scrappy proprietary driver for no reason :(
