       @gamingonlinux worked perfectly for my 4 64Bit controllers - such a relief not to have to worry about Windows VMs when I want to update.

       @gamingonlinux It would probably require WebUSB or Bluetooth Chromium only “standards”. Not ideal, but installing Vivaldi or another Chromium-based browser just for an occasional firmware update still beats requiring a separate Windows or Mac machine for the purpose

       @gamingonlinux Oh thank god, I tried to use winboat to do this and it went poorly lol. I didn’t think they’d get around to doing something like this!

       @gamingonlinux As much a I'd prefer a native app, I'll take it! I put Windows on my Steam Deck for stuff like this.

       @gamingonlinux sure would be nice if they bothered to support all their controllers .....Or hey just build a Linux application? I love my controller but I've never been able to use 2 of the buttons because they require the windows only software:(

       @gamingonlinux I guess this is better than trying to get it running through wine, but the fact that web developers seem unable to care about non-google based browsers is just disappointing.
