Firmware update is posted on Reddit. It is in Beta, but appears to work. Scroll all the way down to the bottom and you will see Beta Firmware for a bunch of the controllers, including the 2C!
These are not working on Switch 2, it's all over the Internet, nobody can get any of the Switch 8bitdo controllers to work on Switch 2, going to take a firmware update from 8bitdo.
I have the Navy version of this controller I bought specifically for Switch 2, they connect to the Switch 2, but none of the buttons or inputs work and the Switch 2 doesn't recognize it on the controller layout screen.

please let us know! I would have thought 8BitDo would start updating their site before launch.

Will this connect to PC and Android/iOS over Bluetooth?
I have used it on Android with Bluetooth, not sure about PC (cuz I use the 2.4ghz receiver that comes with it) but I'm assuming it'd work also....although I'd advise against using Bluetooth if you still have the receiver

What?? Oh no. That sucks. I thought controller compatibility would have been a relatively easy thing. I guess I don't have as many Switch 2 controllers as I thought.

Does this stick drift over time (just like most controllers)?
No, this is a Hall effect controller. Different designs for that reason alone
