It seems like ring finger paddle buttons are becoming a controller staple. I know of these, what are some others?
Clone an existing button only:
8BitDo Pro 2 (P1, P2)
PS4/PS5 controller with remap kit from ExtremeRate (K1, K2, K3, K4)
Treated by Steam as an entirely new button:
Steam Controller (L4, R4)
Paired joy-cons (left SL, SR; right SL, SR)
Steam Deck (L4, L5, R4, R5)
Xbox Elite (P1, P2, P3, P4)
Dualsense Edge (LB, RB)
I use a modded PS5 controller on PC. I’ve found for most purposes, clone-binding R4 to Cross/A and L4 to Square/X is good enough, as that allows me to crouch and jump while also running and turning with the thumbsticks. But it’d be really cool if I could remap these buttons steam-side, instead of needing to clone an existing button controller-side.
I used to get drift on EVERY Xbox controller in less than a year. The kids got older and started dropping them on the floor less, and lo and behold, my controllers last years without any drift. 🤷🏻♂️

I kept mine in the case when not in use 😪 I have original ps2/3 controllers that still hold center. The sticks feel terrible, but they work.
