I wound up with one of those newfangled playstation controllers, and I'm surprised at how good it is. It paired nicely on Endeavour KDE, and there's a big touchpad in the center that works to control the mouse pointer out of the box. I'm quite happy with it!

More or less yeah. My PS5 controller has stopped working via bluetooth (on basically all my machines) until I applied a firmware patch using a Windows only tool. Other than that, it's been my preferred controller, and the PS4 controller was before that. I don't like the internal lithium ion batteries in them though. I've had to replace 3 of them between the 2 controllers in the ~8 years I've had them. Xbox controllers just take regular batteries with is pretty handy. Though I've had the same suddenly-stopped-working-on-bluetooth-until-you-update-the-firmware issue on those as well. -_-
