Reddit Community Comes Together to Help Steam Deck User with Unique Thumbs

A Steam Deck owner with three thumbs received support from Reddit users who 3D-printed solutions for his gaming challenges.

A Steam Deck owner with three thumbs recently turned to the Reddit community, hoping to find a way to modify his device for better accessibility. In a heartfelt post, he detailed his unique hand situation, stating, “I love my Steam Deck but I’ve got one huge problem.” He explained that he has two small thumbs instead of one large thumb, making it difficult for him to reach the left joystick.

After posting, a wave of kindness followed as numerous Reddit users stepped up to help. SpecificGreen9140 went above and beyond by 3D-printing a thumbstick extender to accommodate the user’s needs, stating, “A little help for people with two thumbs on one hand.”

In response to this generosity, Alpha-Quartz expressed his gratitude, noting how overwhelmed he was by the support, saying, “I’ve got 100 different people trying to print different attachments and mailing them to me. Nicest thing anyone has ever done for me.”

The interaction reflects a heartwarming thread where users shared designs and offered assistance, showcasing the positive side of online communities. As part of the exchange, there were even light-hearted jokes about having “three thumbs up”, which added a sweet touch to the situation.
