The main difference is the PS5 stick's slightly reduced diameter and grittier feel compared to the PS4's smoother, larger stick.

Do PS4 thumbsticks work on PS5?

Yes, PS4 thumbstick grips and performance thumbsticks (like KontrolFreek) fit and work on PS5 controllers because they share the same cap size, offering customization, but you cannot use a whole PS4 DualShock 4 controller for native PS5 games, only PS4 games played on the PS5 console.

Does rubbing alcohol fix stick drift?

Yes, rubbing alcohol (isopropyl alcohol, 90%+) can often fix stick drift by cleaning dust and grime from the potentiometers inside the joystick module, a common cause of the issue, but it's a temporary fix for dirt, not permanent damage, and you must let it dry completely. Apply a small amount with a Q-tip around the base of the stick, rotate it to work it in, then let it dry fully, as higher percentages (90%+) are better and leave less residue.
