Your primary search term here should be the USB ID. Model numbers can help but so many things are rebadged or go through cost optimization where different revisions require entirely different drivers.

Plug in the device and see what dmesg or lsusb says. Search for that device ID, if you don’t find any good matches search for the manufacturer ID – frequently a newer model builds on older models code bases and APi.

When you only need to hammer a nail every once in a while, any hammer will do. When you’re a roofer, you better have a roofing hammer.

If you don’t spend your life in a terminal and just need to edit a file, vim isn’t for you. If you want to learn complex strings of arcane wizardry to not only make your life easier but amaze your underlings, use vim.

From a developer standpoint you’re taking someone’s baby, cloning it into a language they don’t understand and deprecating the original. Worse, if you’re not actually interested in taking over the project you’ve now made it abandonware because the original developer lost heart and the person looking for commit counts on GitHub has moved on.

Obviously these extremes don’t always apply, but a lot of open source relies on people taking a personal interest. If you destroy that, you might just destroy the project.
