Now if only there was a way to update the controllers on Linux. Neither Sony nor Microsoft have touched on this. Which is really irritating as Sony even has official drivers for Linux.

Even Apple doesn't have an app, and the official controller sold in Apple stores is the Dual Sense, it just makes no sense at all.

At this point, there are tons of controllers out there that don't require you to connect to a malicious AI-driven OS to update them.

this was a issue I had for a while when trying to connect controllers to my Steam Deck
I knew it was possible they just wouldn't appear in the Bluetooth menu or would freak out when connecting

Turns out they just needed a firmware update even though they where brand new
