Looking for the best bluetooth adapter with Linux (Mint) compatibility…I got one now but it seems to have cutting out issues and doesn’t work well with some stuff (like a PS4 controller).

Or maybe it’s just Linux bluetooth being terrible as usual? Has anyone had luck with different dongles? (No scamazon links please)

    Yeah. My desktop mobo has a WiFi chip plugged into a little PCIe port. It does the Bluetooth too, and you can replace it.

    I bring this up because Bluetooth on a new WiFi card is likely to be better Bluetooth than a cheap dongle, and there’s a chance your setup doesn’t like the WiFi either if it doesn’t like the Bluetooth.
