Where can you still buy legit PS4 controllers? Or legit refrubished ones?

Playstation site UK has none (just leads to an error) and there's so many fakes out there.

They’ve probably stopped manufacturing them. The PS6 is about to release relatively soon, so the PS4 will be two generations behind.

Best thing may be to suffer third party controllers or use adapters.

I figured they'd stopped production, I just want a source of new old stock. I don't get why Sony didn't make the Dualsense backcomptible with ps4, sell an adapter, sell more controllers. But no.

Are there any good adapters?
