Heads up for those who want a game controller that works well on Linux: Target.com has the DualSense for $50 USD right now.

Bluetooth, USB, motion controls, and rumble all work. The driver is from Sony and is part of the mainline kernel, so most desktop distros should have it already.

The early ones had a battery life problem, but I believe they fixed that a year or two ago. Upgrading your firmware might help, if you haven't already.
