Bluetooth Issues on Linux - New on Linux

Hello everyone,

I'm new to Linux (currently using EndeavourOS), and the journey has been... an adventure. But like Frodo carrying the One Ring, I'm struggling with Bluetooth. I can't get my headphones or mouse to connect. Meanwhile, my keyboard works thanks to a dedicated HP dongle, and my Xbox controller is running via a Windows-certified dongle (after summoning xone).

So, I ask you, wise wizards of Linux:

💍 Is there a single dongle to rule them all? One Bluetooth adapter to bind them, to pair them all, and in the darkness... not fail me?

❓ Why did everything work fine on Windows natively, while Linux demands multiple dongles? Even my Xbox controller (though occasionally possessed) worked without extra setup.

🔍 Can you recommend multiple Bluetooth dongle alternatives that work well on Linux? I try to avoid Amazon as much as possible, and finding good options elsewhere is a quest of its own.

If you have insights, fixes, or a dongle that truly rules them all, I’d really appreciate your guidance! 🧙‍♂️

Thanks in advance!
