The Reddit Viewer and the Default Controller addons don't work

[mYnDstrEAm]

I'm not sure if these are issues with the Kodi of this repo or Kodi in general or those addons (note that it could be partly controller-hardware-related).

The Reddit Reader / Reddit Viewer addon isn't in the repos and I don't know why. Can addons be requested here (if so I'd like to request this addon).
I tried installing it from the .zip file but it can't be installed because dependency xbmc.python 2.14.0 could not be resolved (despite this being the latest Kodi version; I think the python versions should match)? I also tried this on another machine.

Furthermore, I'm trying to get the XBox controllers to work. There's a preinstalled addon "Default controller" and I checked that it's installed, enabled and the latest version. However, I can't use the controller plug & play. I also can't configure it as described here (this guide seems to be outdated but it also didn't work similarly). What I tried was (re)connecting my controller multiple times and going to Settings -> System -> Input -> making sure "Enable controller support" is enabled and checking if there's an entry for the Default Controller under "Configure connected controllers" and if there is trying to press buttons and moving the left and right sticks and trying to assign the A button.

On the first try where I checked that it's installed, enabled and the latest version by pressing "update" there was no entry for the Default Controller / Kodi under Controller-Profile and the only entry there was "Super Nintendo". I then tried installing the Default Controller but still no entry showed up. Only after restarting Kodi was there an entry for the default controller named "Kodi" but the controller didn't seem to connect - nothing of the button-pressing worked. However, in the Dolphin Emulator the controller was detected and the buttons worked as they should there.

In the logs there is: WARNING <general>: CAddonMgr::FindAddons: Addon 'game.controller.default' already present with higher version 1.0.9 at '/usr/share/kodi/addons/game.controller.default/' - other version 1.0.8 at '/home/username/.kodi/addons/game.controller.default/' will be ignored

I also tried it on another machine but didn't try to update the addon to the latest version there. There there was an entry for the default controller right away but no button-pressing worked either. Furthermore, instead of three options under "Devices" in the settings there there was only one ("Configure connected controllers"); the "Enable controller support" setting was missing entirely. Why is that?

These controller issues probably are more related to Kodi in general but maybe it's related to the version in this repo? Any help?

I tried installing it from the .zip file but it can't be installed because dependency xbmc.python 2.14.0 could not be resolved (despite this being the latest Kodi version;

xbmc-python <= 3.0.0 means it targets Python 2, which is now obsolete: xbmc/xbmc#17326 So you have to either ask the add-on author to modernize the addon to Python 3 (it is easy) or try doing that yourself.

For the reddit reader addon: it seems the python version used is specified here - I changed the addon.xml file of the addon accordingly by changing it to <import addon="xbmc.python" version="3.0.0" /> and tried to install it. But then it said the version of youtube-dl Control is not compatible with this version of Kodi before showing the same error again. Only the same error showed when I tried with the version of python 3 that I have installed (python3 --version) (3.7.2) and (3.8.5) as in the build-scripts. Is this the latest state on the youtube-dl Control addon? Was the change I tried missing something? I don't know why it displayed the same error again and a new error. Also asked about it here.
