The Pi Hut, I've been a returning customer for a few years now and have always been happy with the service. The Flirc remote software is somewhat flakey in Rasberry Pi OS (Raspbian as it used to be called) and found it to be a bit of a pain to use but it is possible. Sometimes it works, sometimes it is laggy and slow, sometimes it wouldn't connect to the dongle but this is just the setup software, the dongle itself works very well. The following might not be true in a Kodi install or other situations, this is just my experience in case it helps somebody. I found if I installed the software in windows, configured all my buttons there, it is all stored on the Flirc dongle anyway and then plug it into the Pi and it just works. The linux software feels clunky, I couldn't get it installed at all in Ubuntu Mate on the Pi but that is where I am using the USB dongle now after a windows configuration. Would I buy it again? Yes, I love using a remote to control my music player (Audacious) which goes out into an external DAC via USB, it is a great solution.
