Still have to find an app who can sort albums by year properly (without mess with tags also).

Don’t forget Syncthing, I always suggest it first since it doesn’t require a server or advanced knowledge to work.

The Xbox one is good and it’s the standard layout on PC, so this is probably your pick.

I love my Steam Controller since is very customizable and a pretty unique hardware, but it may require config steps.

8bitdo stuff is usually good but pay attention on layout buttons.

Never tested a PS controller on PC but Steam should allow to play some game with the PS buttons on screen.

WhatsApp is the real drama.
