Hell yes! I was really going to be annoyed if they would’ve just let all of the controllers become wired only or just more e-waste by default. Would be really cool if they open source it. At some point I had joined others in tweeting about it when they announced the end of Stadia. I had also said that it would be at least useful if they were to see if it could be adapted to work Luna since I think Amazon’s own controller works similarly.
Maybe they could release it as a Chrome extension/app? They have the Chrome OS recovery drive tool that lets you make a USB drive. So I don’t see why they couldn’t have something that could update the controller via USB cable. But I also am not a coder/dev and lack knowledge of what can or can’t be done. It would be good if they can since they really wanted Chromebook users to game via Stadia anyway. Otherwise the Stadia app for Android and iOS was able to get updates going on the controller before anyway and could be used (if they wanted). And if any of the ideas above don’t work, then maybe it could be made to work in WINE?
No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy “anti-woke” energy, you probably shouldn’t be posting it here.

So let me guess, I will need Windows to use the self service tool?
We’ll see

Just from a web developers perspective: providing the tool online without install is possible with WebSerial or WebUSB
