*Screams internally*

I'm always the cause of the drift. Almost all older controllers we have at home have stick drift because of me. Now I'm not allowed to touch the newer controllers

I've gone through 4 and I'm now on the fifth, I take so much care of them but I game a lot, so it's inevitable.

Yeah

I know how to avoid and fix stick drift, but no matter how many pairs of Joy-Cons i buy, the right one always disconnects at random times. That's more painful.

For me, it's a different problem with each controller. Dualshok #1 stopped charging, #2 left stick drift and x stopped working, #3 x stopped working, #4 right stick drift, #5 pending...
And when I say they stopped working I mean they are unplayable

I use an Xbox Series X and Nintendo Switch. You just gotta be careful with what you're doing to the joysticks and how clean the controller is.

The problem is no matter how careful I am they always break. I play a lot of fortnite which requires a lot of movement, especially from the sticks, and FIFA obliterates the x button, and I game a lot, like a lot a lot.

AFAIK this was unheard of 8 years ago.

Actually, you have a point. My first controller lasted 8 years. The new ones break in a matter of months.
