The science behind the Xbox Controller and why the left thumbstick placement is superior
I will die on this hill till the end of time. The ps5 controller is the the most comfortable of all Playstation controllers but will never compare to Xbox due to left joystick location.

[Hogg] Everyone please pour one out for my mans here. Nothing happened to him, he’s just had to diligently operate the pitch clock for 450 pitches over 3.5 hours, and this game ain’t even close to over yet. And, yes, they use an XBox controller for the pitch timer here.
Microsoft has already spent an obscene amount of money developing an ergonomic controller, why fix what isn’t broke lol. I’ve heard the military uses Xbox or PlayStation controllers for certain things for that very reason

Xbox 360 2005
I think it was because the 360 was (for me) the culmination of so many modern console ideas into a working model, it just started out revolutionary and kept evolving over the years. So many concepts that are considered for granted today was right out of the box- where before, these concepts were add

That was fast
I mean that’s fair, but the reason I use an elite 2 controller is that nothing else comes close to the feeling of it in your hand. It feels so premium compared to any other controller, it’s just a shame it has so many issues. And I’d argue this controller is closer to an Elite than a normal Xbox con

What is the best/favorite controller for PS5 Pro
I prefer the Xbox layout too even though I’m a PS player. I find the Nacon even more comfortable than the XB controller. The grips feel more ergonomic and don’t come down to a sharp point like other controllers

Review: Gamesir G7 Pro vs. Flydigi Vader 5 Pro
Nice comparison. Personally I found the G7 shape uncomfortable and I didn't like the LB/RB shape. The Vader 5 Pro has been great for me. It feels really nice in the hands thanks to the materials used. The size and shape is good but the Microsoft Xbox Wireless controller is even better in that regard

The elite Series 2 controller is shamefully bad. The rubber is falling off and one of the bumpers is broken. Barely any usage.
I've also asked about actual good ones (as in 4 rear buttons) and got some recommendations before. Here's 3 that I thought looked alright that I've bookmarked for when my current Elite Series 2 becomes unusable. https://www.turtlebeach.com/products/victrix-pro-bfg-reloaded-wireless-controller?Platfo

30 minutes to Sold Out The Valve hardware experience in a nutshell
Maybe it was your router. I never had any issues with my steam link. The controller was a little clunky, but it was a novel effort. These days I use an Xbox controller with the steam link apps.
