Help me choose a controller (sh.itjust.works)

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 can wait a couple months, get the new Steam Controller when it releases. It should work great on Linux (designed for SteamOS) and have plenty of buttons for any game. And if you find yourself kicked into a desktop environment or needing to click or scroll something, the trackpads will help you handle that.
