in reply to Cassandra Granade 🏳️⚧️ • • •the correct layout is XBox-like because I want to be able to keep my thumb on the movement stick while I reach over with my right thumb to hit the D-pad.
Can't do that with a symmetric layout.

It's how I keep my rotations up while I dodge attacks in XIV, or swap spells mid-combat in Elden Ring.

in reply to Cassandra Granade 🏳️⚧️ • • •eh, I only ever play games on controller, so I get pretty good at it.
I could not play KBM at all even if I wanted to. And when I do play games I always heavily remap the buttons; for me triggers are always modifiers and never actions.
So I guess I'm weird?

and "share" is in the category of names we find really annoying because it's a reminder of a corporate agenda at odds with human flourishing, but oh well

in reply to Irenes (many) • • •we like to imagine that in a hundred years' time, everyone will have forgotten what they were ever called and will just use the HID indices
so, for example, there will be conversations about the various meanings people attach to button 12
we think this is highly unlikely, it's just fun to imagine 😁

in reply to Irenes (many) • • •@ireneista I have been flummoxed trying to bind 8bitdo's L4/R4 and PL/PR buttons to anything, games just insist that the XBOX 360 controller is the only controller that's ever been made. Steam at least does a good job of allowing you to remap those buttons before binding them, but the right drivers seem to only in full-on SteamOS so far.
I keep dreaming of a QMK or Ploopy style 3D-printed controller where you just define your own maps in firmware, and screw whatever games seem to think.

in reply to &mut selves Qyriad • • •@Qyriad Legit for the longest time, I had no idea what L3 and R3 were. The names have grown on me quite a lot, but I wish they had been explained a little bit better in the PS2 era.
And yeah, L/ZL are nice for being so different from each other, agreed. It does add up to a bit of chaos in naming, especially with + and - buttons also thrown in, but I do like that the triggers and buttons have distinct kinds of names.
