        @Celestalon @Muffinus I still use a Logitech G13 even though they stopped making them. I have 3 and they're all in poor repair, but the movement from my thumbstick is a hill I'll die on.

          @twenty20sight @Muffinus I've gone through 4 of these sort of things too; Belkin n52, n52te, Razer Orbweaver, Tartarus Pro. Oddly, I use the thumbstick as modifiers, not movement. I'd use it for movement if it was analog though.

      @Muffinus I think I know someone that's ready to have it: https://t.co/4ulk8M34c5

          @Celestalon @Muffinus I'm just saying they're ready to have it, not that they're having it. Having the thumbstick go analog from its all digital state would ruin my use case for it in reality.

            @PaigeHix @Muffinus Ah yeah. @Razer is definitely who I think of to solve this on the hardware side, with just an analog version of one of their existing Orbweaver/Tartarus/etc.
