I got my moonlight/sunshine rig running with fedora on the server and my AppleTV as the client. My DualShock 4 controller works but isn’t mapping right and it’s old enough that it’s probably time I bought something new rather than bother fixing it anyway.

I have an Xbox wireless controller but it just never felt right in my hand.

I have 8bitdo SN30 controllers but they never were able to keep a stable connection.

I’m considering either a Sony dualsense controller and charger, 8bitdo ultimate 2, or 8bitdo pro 3.

Opinions?

    I have a Sony Dualsense controller and haven’t had any problems with it as a game controller. However, I’m always launching games through Steam, or letting Steam run in the background (so that it’s handling the controller input remapping). I don’t know if that’s what you plan on doing; I’ve never tried it without Steam handling the inputs.

    My one complaint about it is that the trackpad isn’t good enough to use as a mouse when you’re navigating the desktop. So I ended up switching back to my original Steam controller.
