Robotics developers, startups, and resalers furiously shopping for new HID peripherals
(programming.dev)
That Logitech joystick model was a staple HID (Human Interface Device) and wireless peripheral for many robotics researchers and corporations. Pairing and range was better than any 2010's Bluetooth, and more compatible than OEM or hobby grade RF controllers. So many ROS projects used those. If both Xbox and PS DualShock controllers get cought amidst similar public ridicule, then we'll have nothing left! ๐ฎ๐
There's so many input devices that have drivers baked into the modern Linux kernels that I've not had an issue using any device in the past 10 years (wired or wireless/Bluetooth). Sometimes that device requires windows for some companion software (like to control rgb), but input functionality still just works.
