I've tried running https://github.com/Sopsy/joycon-turnoff using Wine, Parallels, VMWare, UTM, [all three running Windows 11 for ARM], but it does not work. Is there other software that can turn off my joycons? Other than getting a Windows device for https://github.com/Sopsy/joycon-turnoff, that is?

I have a modded Lite if that helps, lol.
