I need a wireless controller for my linux laptop (Kubuntu 23.04).

I don't care how it connects (bluetooth dongle). I just want one that works. The most intense game I play is stardew valley.

I would jizz through the roof if they did that. I have repetitive stress injuries that massively limit my gaming and the touchpads are a godsend in first person games. I set it up to act like a trackball with inertia so instead of holding a direction to turn I could just flick that way and "catch" it when it got to the right spot. Seems like a PITA but after about five minutes you completely forget it was ever weird.

Mix that in with the motion control and you can get really accurate shooting.

When I had a Deck I set it up the same way and... yeah, perfection. Just chop the middle out of the Deck and give it to me, baby. Uh huh. Uh huh.
