Linux Bluetooth adapters

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!

Any BT adapter I’ve tried has worked with Linux, to be honest. The only problematic ones are some old ones from Broadcomm for the Mac.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
