Ordered a new joypad as the cheap-ish wired one as developed bad stick drift on the right thumbstick now. The new one has these hall effect that anti-drift, hopefully the tech will be standard in all joypads
My xbox one controller that came with the console is still going, quite worn, left thumbstick has a little drift and had to replace one of the bumpers but it lasted a long time - about 9 years. Had to replace series X controller that come with the console with MS and that had very little use as the X button stopped working, had official wireless blue controller for xbox one and the A button stopped working.
Of course you get the reddit brained morons claiming "you throw them around!!!111 or you punch the buttons!" - No, I do think they are cheaper made now. You expect it from the cheap-ish makes, apart the stick drift the red wired one is fine.

The controller I received with my Series X developed stick drift within a month. It caught me by suprise as with Nintendo I have been extremely lucky on that front.
They did straight up replace it for me, but there was 2 - 3 weeks using the old Xbox One pad.

Wow. How long has the Xbox had third party non-gaming ads on the home screen?! Got one for McDonald’s there now

Why is a game reaching end of life status?

Happens with all of the Forza games. The cars are only licensed for a certain amount of time, so rather than paying an astronomical amount to relicense for another X years, they just delist it.
The last point is handy for me. Think I got the season pass but don't own the game itself.

Music is an issue too with licensing
