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?

If you're using the USB dongle then try use a USB extension cable to put some distance between the device and the dongle to reduce interference. And make sure the dongle has clear line of sight to the controller.

I dont have the 8bitdo controller but I have had issues like that with lots of other devices with dongles and using an extension + line of sight solved connectivity issues with all of them.
