From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

It seems like it should be trivial to create a controller device that maps the input from two other controller devices

This is easy with directly connected USB/serial controllers, but Bluetooth...probably tricky. You just need to forward input from multiple devices to one, essentially. Some hints in here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Gamepad
