I have never EVER had any luck getting wireless gamepad controllers to work on a PC. *Any* PC. They will work briefly (like for a few minutes) and then randomly die. I have a PS4 / PS5 and they have never had an issue so I don't think it's anything in my environment.
Any tips? Not sure what to even try.

I dont know if its the same problem or not. But when I stopped using my MOBO's BT and started using adapters, the connectivity massively improved. When I moved the adapter from the rear of my metal and glass case to the front of my case (facing me) that basically cleared up any connection issues.

8bitdo has the ultimate2 on sale cuz of prime day for 40bucks, it's got tmr sticks this just doesn't have switch support, add an extra 10bucks for that one actually i should test out my ultimate2 on my switch 2, supposedly it can turn on the switch2

Yeah, I think this right here is the problem. All this time I've been trying to use generic/onboard bluetooth adapters. I have a Gamesir pad and will try using it's supplied adapter.

Yeah, second this. I've had tons of issues with bluetooth. My motherboard adapter is trash and so are lots of the external ones. I think a lot of devices use trash receivers too.
