What Gamepad do you recommend? (programming.dev)

I'm looking for a set of gamepads to play local co-op games with my fiance. A while back I purchased an Xbox Elite controller expecting it to be sturdy since, it's Microsoft's premium controller targeted at both Xbox and PC. Shortly later, my bumper broke which appears to be because the bumpers are just a piece of plastic being bent over and over. It looks like they ported this same defect over to the Xbox Elite 2 controller without fixing it and at this point, I'm done.

I was looking at Sony controllers, I'm a little worried about there compatibility with PC (Windows and Linux) and also the fact that I have large hands.

Scuff also came up, but their prices are pretty high and IDkK how durable they are.

What do you suggest?

I've been using the Razer Wolverine Tournament Edition for years, after wearing out a regular Xbox controller and returning the Xbox Elite controller because I didn't like the design. It's held up well. Looks like the latest version has hall effect sticks too.
