Welp, I modded my #Thrustmaster T.16000m #joystick to make it less stiff https://youtu.be/5NsEpDkFvdU but now my wrist hurts just from testing all the stick's motions.

It's probably the twist motion. That pinches the carpal tunnel if I'm not mistaken. (Maybe that's why twist sticks went out of style?)
I guess I'd better change my control setup to not use the twist. Hopefully that helps.
It will be tough to redo all that muscle memory, but as Seven of Nine would say: I will adapt.

It didn't work.
Even with no twist and reduced #joystick stiffness, my hand still feels slightly numb after a half hour of #Descent.It doesn't hurt, at least, but numb is bad too.
Damn it.
This wrist played the hell out of this game with this control setup 15 years ago without problems, and I used this joystick in Elite Dangerous 6 years ago without problems, so I'm starting to worry that there's something degenerative happening to my wristβ¦
