Ultimate 2 Bluetooth latency is kinda bad

ultamate 2 switches to xinput on shutdown
I have the 8bitdo ultimate 2 wuchang edition. (Absolutely beautiful controller btw)
I use it on 2.4ghz mode and whenever i turn off the controller it switches to xinput.

Bought Steam Controller #2 to play on Mac but it isn't working, any suggestions?
8bitDo Ultimate 2C works fine via Bluetooth but I’ve yet to get the 2.4 dongle to work. Xbox controller works via BT as well.

Potentially resolved Mac Ultimate Software V2 woes
Can't edit the title, but it's now "Partially resolved Mac Ultimate Software V2 woes"
More like something was broken, I hope. Nope, still broken.
I picked up an Ultimate 2 Bluetooth controller last week to use macros on Pokemon Legends Z-A. So far, it has not been a consistently delightful experie
