@183231bcb@transfem.social I ended up getting a GuliKit KingKong 2 Pro controller, and I've been quite happy with it:
- Feels very pleasant and high-quality
- Can be used either wired or wireless
- Works out of the box on pretty much everything, including consoles and Linux
- Has drift-free analog sticks with a *very* tiny (and configurable) deadzone
- All configuration (optional) is done through special key combinations, not in drivers, this includes a key swap for action buttons (for switching to mapping conventions of different consoles)
The one I bought did arrive with a sticky switch; I asked them to send me a replacement switch (wanted to replace it myself) and they sent me a 4-pack. I assume they also do normal repairs. The one major downside is the price.

@joepie91 @183231bcb huh interesting, it looks like an Xbox controller but uses the Nintendo button layout

@hazelnot @183231bcb@transfem.social Well, sort of; you can switch between the layouts with a button combo. If the button print bothers you you can also screw it open and move the caps around, as the switches are not soldered, so a screwdriver and some patience is all you need.

@joepie91 @183231bcb hah makes sense

@183231bcb@transfem.social Belated note: it can connect as either a DirectPlay (old-style) or xinput (new, XBox-style) controller, using the connection toggle switch. So that should make it work with pretty much everything.
