Comment on Microsoft made me sign in on their Xbox Accessories app to update the firmware on my controller

I’m quite aware other controllers exist? Xone is a kernel level driver and works with newer Xbox controllers. It’s worked flawlessly for years. All I had to do was make sure the controller’s firmware was up 2 date.
So with virtually no effort my gaming rig supports all the controllers you brought up for some reason, plus modern ones.
