What DE (Desktop Environments) or graphical interfaces can be controlled with a gamepad? (programming.dev)

I'm messing around with my OrangePi5 again, gonna experiment with Armbian and DietPi again. As both offer a minimal installer, I'll want to add a DE, or at least a graphical interface that can run at boot and let me control it with a bluetooth controller.

If not a full DE, just what packages should I experiment with?

If it doesn't, then it will be profitable to build fabs to break the cartel. The US greatly ramped up oil production the last oil crisis to become the most oil producing nation using fracking despite OPEC. We're watching the beginning of the same with China with CXMT and likely others to follow.

It looks really nice, gonna give that one a try. Do you know how much RAM it takes while running?
