I think it's pretty hard to go wrong with any of the 8BitDo stuff and there are so many variations to suit different tastes and hands. I've been using an SN30 (modernized SNES style) across PC, Switch, and Deck and it's the best controller I've ever owned. Outlasted my now-drifty Switch Pro controller and two pairs of Nintendo's inexcusably shitty OEM joycons. Small, light, comfortable, gets good battery life, and connects reliably. Has everything a person needs for modern games, unless you need analog triggers for something.
I wish I could see my order history to see which 8bitdo I had, but mine did not work with the steamdeck out of the box. It was a wired controller though.
