Is there literally anything I can do other than buy a new one?

Also did this shit affect Switch Lite? Where the sticks are built in?

Spray a little bit of wd-40 under the flap were the stick meets the ball then move the analog stick around. It fixed both of mine and my brothers.

You can buy replacement joycon joysticks and the proper tools on amazon for pretty cheap.
Personally when mine started to drift I also switched the shell while I was at it to this one that matches my original gameboy color

My friend sent hers in and it was only a week or so to get it back. I have a feeling they're very practiced in that repair now lol.

I have 3 ps4 controllers and they all have drift. Get on my level. Get on my super frustrated consistently shouting into the void level.
