Steam deck compatible keyboard? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

What brands or products work on Linux, particular with the steam deck as it's immutable so Logitech doesn't really work for it, does anybody have any suggestions? My few requirements is a wireless keyboard and full keyboard, as I use my steam deck as a console on my big screen. I can't seem to find a keyboard brand that works nativity with steam deck with software to change macro keys and what not.

Any QMK based board that supports VIA should work, since the macros and key bindings are stored on the board, and you can use a browser to configure it (even if you have to configure it on another machine, and swap back to the Steam Deck).

Alternatively, I believe that Solaar is available in Discover Store for Steam Deck, and that would allow you to configure Logi devices (but I don't have any personal experience with this yet).
