I know Steam supports controllers, but does lutris and Heroic Games Launcher support it too? (PS, XBOX, SWITCH)

YMMV but without proton, I found that my controllers only worked if they were plugged in at game start, and replugging them in mid-session prevented them from working. I eventually bought a Mayflash Magic NS2 wireless adapter and stopped having this problem - I'm not sure if it's because the adapter is always acting like a controller even without one connected, or if a coincidental kernel upgrade fixed it.
