posting this because i searched for it and very little came up. for some reason it's not in joystick settings, it's hidden off-screen at the bottom of the available input methods. it's on screen for inputs with few options, like ABXY, but not joysticks, trackpads or gyro
youtube tutorial (not mine)
i realise people generally prefer action layers, but i find mode shifts much less buggy
i'll be honest, i started this sub because nobody else had; and i wanted it to exist. i don't want to be a mod, i don't know how to, and i don't like the idea
if you would like to help out, please comment on this post or message me
Most of these resources are outdated (including the official wiki) due to the steam input revamp with the release of the steam deck. The basic concepts should stay the same, but the UI layout will be different

i find it annoying to have to manually change urls to subscribe to a community outside lemmy.world, so i wrote a bookmarklet to quickly switch to the lemmy.world instance
to use, just drag the following code to your bookmarks bar (name it whatever you like), then click it when you want to use it
javascript:(function(){const myInst="lemmy.world";let currUrl=window.location.toString().split("/");let currInst=currUrl[2];currUrl[2]=myInst;if(currUrl[3]=="m"){currUrl[3]="c";}let newUrl=currUrl.join("/");if(!(currUrl[-1].includes("@"))){newUrl=newUrl+"@"+currInst;}window.location=newUrl;})()
readable version:
javascript:(
function() {
// make sure to change this if using on a different instance
const myInst="lemmy.world";
let currUrl=window.location.toString().split("/");
let currInst=currUrl[2];
currUrl[2]=myInst;
// fix for kbin using "m" instead,
// without overriding /u/ for user
if (currUrl[3]=="m") {
currUrl[3]="c";
}
let newUrl=currUrl.join("/");
// fix for already foreign instances (e.g. lemm.ee/c/jerboa@lemmy.ml)
if (!currUrl[-1].includes("@")) {
newUrl=newUrl+"@"+currInst;
}
window.location=newUrl;
})
