I need a Bluetooth adapter for my laptop that has Linux mint on it. I just need it to connect a BT speaker for watching YouTube and netflix. The adapters I looked at on amazon all say they aren’t compatible with Linux. I was hoping I could get some recommendations that work with Linux. And preferably one that doesn’t require drivers from some sketchy site, Thanks!
EDIT: thanks everyone for the recommendations!
Most TP-link ones work afaik. I have the TP-link UB400 for bluetooth on my PC
The Amazon page explicitly says it’s not compatible with Linux. That’s confusing
Guessing it’s officially not supported, and it just works with whatever open source drivers come with the kernel. I know the packaging only lists windows devices as supported, but so far it’s been fine for me :3
TP-Link is not secure
Bluetooth is not secure. OP is not looking for security, just bluetooth audio.
In what way? For which use case? What threat models would exclude TP Link products?
