I know many will want this covered by Nintendo out of principle, but it is a very easy fix to perform yourself for the average hacker. The parts and tools are inexpensive as well. I have replaced 5 joycon sticks now and I find it rather satisfying.

This! I'm still using the original joycons I got with the switch. Any time I get joystick drift, I crack the joycon open and swap the joystick out. Takes five minutes and I'm immediately back to gaming. I bought a bunch of replacements off aliexpress a few years back, so each repair costs me less than a dollar.
