I have a fedora server running sway and sunshine. I'm having a problem where this rule (https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine/blob/8765bbf050a18dcaf441851e5e52505a6c709c48/src_assets/linux/misc/60-sunshine.rules) isn't firing, so the controller stays with root permissions instead of belonging to the input group and it messes things up. I'm not sure why it wont fire that rule.

no, steam is the symptom because it only happens in steam and steam games. changing the permissions on /dev/hidraw0 fixes that, but that device is destroyed after each session and recreated on new sessions, so manually assigning a group isnt viable.

Kid...multiple people told you about steam-input. See my other comments.

OK, there’s definitely a communication issue here. Rather than arguing with each other could you point me specifically to what you’re talking about with this comment?
