If your 8bitdo Ultimate 2C stopped charging and is completely dead. Open it carefully (you need a torx t6 and a plastic pry-tool). Remove the battery and charge it with a lipo charger. Mine is a lx-lbes which costs around 1 Euro. After charging up, reconnect the battery and run the update to firmware 1.01 on a PC. Next to Switch2 support, you gain a controller which charges again like every other battery-powered device on the planet.
(These controllers are awesome, but update your firmware!)

Someone on the Steam subreddit was asking for Valve to make a #SteamOS phone (seeing how the new VR headset is Arm but also playes x86 steam games). And I thought "Hey, I've already got #PostmarketOS on a phone. We know Valve is using some 'FEX' library. How hard could it be?"
As it turned out, remarkably easy. (Though, it helps that someone already wrote a guide for it: https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Steam )
Pretty sure it's a YMMV situation, but my milage was pretty good.

My recommendation to people who plan to / would like to switch to Linux is usually to switch to applications that exist for both systems first, like Thunderbird, Librewolf, LibreOffice, Zotero, VSCodium. You'll find out quickly what your potential pain points are going to be. But if you get along fine, then swapping out the underlying OS at some later point in time is actually a comparatively small step.
