The journalctl command returns nothing.

    That's strange. Is it possible you've forgot that pound ("#") sign
    means "run as root"?

Found a github repository that compiles on Bullseye at https://github.com/morrownr/88x2bu. Then it's a matter of doing the following as root

git clone https://github.com/morrownr/88x2bu
cd 88x2bu-20210702   ## date string may different
make clean
make
make install

then rebooting. The wifi dongle now shows in "ip addr".

    Good to hear you've made it working.
    You might want to walk an extra mile and setup DKMS [1][2] for it,
    so it will automatically re-compile and re-install itself after
    every kernel image update.
