ultimate 2c wired controller doesnt work on switch
The 2C wired isn't compatible with switch unfortunately. You'll have to go for the Bluetooth edition. Imo 8Bitdo has a big problem with product variation with the ultimate series for this reason.

Best controller for Linux?
I've never had any real trouble with wired Xbox controllers and the wireless 8bitdo Ultimate 2C is currently working fine for me (you do need Windows to update the firmware on the 8bitdo stuff, however).

Want to love CachyOS but...
I use a 8bitdo Ultimate 2C and that has just been plug and play for me. It did stop working when I tried to install Xbox controller drivers for some reason, but worked fine again after I removed them.

Steam Controller Priced at $149 CAD
That's a no for me dawg. 8bitdo ultimate 2c is the best controller you can get on PC and it's $30. I would have paid $60 for a steam controller, but $100 is just too much
