I’ve experienced the drift with both joy-cons. The left is more prone to having it happen but I read about a diy fix involving blowing compressed air under the rubber flap below the thumb stick. I simply used a straw and blew into it. It seems to improve the drift but only temporarily. It goes away after trying that technique but comes back after a period of time. It’s definitely better overall but not completely gone. I end up doing the straw/compressed air method once or twice a week. I really shouldn’t have to do that. The only positive is that it brings me back to my days of being a kid and having to blow air from my mouth into the original NES carts. Thanks for the nostalgia, Nintendo!
@Kidfunkadelic83 it didn’t click for me until I changed the controls. Might not do the trick for you but thought I’d share. I made jumping trigger buttons and put shields as main buttons (X/Y). Jumping with the thumbstick really held me back.
