android phones especially telescophic controllers attached is the closest thing we have to a steamcontroller 2.0. phones have gyro and touch input. even using just the phone with touchscreen buttons should work. have an oldphone you don't use? turn it into a steamcontroller. if you have the budget, but a cheap telescophic controller off ebay and you have feature rich gamepad.

Will likely never happen. Even some of the code for the current devices that SC Controller supports is kind of thrown together; Steam Deck support is still a bit flaky. It is probably not a good base to work from in the long run. I had ambitions to port my experimental mapper projects to Linux in some form but I do not think I will ever do it. Not enough time and I do not game on Linux anymore; I barely play video games at all. The major adoption of Wine (Proton) in the "Linux" gaming space has seriously had a negative impact on Linux as a whole and software freedom; rms was right about Wine after all.
