A temp fix I’ve found is putting a bit of rubbing alcohol on a Q-tip and wiping the drifting stick. Sometimes that helps, but most of the time it doesn’t. You usually have to take the controller apart, do the same thing inside, and use compressed air or something to blow out any junk that might be stuck. If that still doesn’t work, you might need to replace the stick itself — I don’t know how to do that, but I’ve seen the parts are cheap. Worst case, you could buy a new controller,
