I use a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller. It does the job for all of the systems I have on Retroarch.

Picture of my controller!

Looks like you're a fellow PC enjoyer. Although, I'd say depending on the keyboard and how your arm and wrist are positioned, a keyboard can do the same thing.

I'm pc exclusively and can't image gaming on a keyboard and mouse.

I've never had wrist pain from a controller, but it's every time with a keyboard.

Sure, but there's a possibility to find good keyboard, that won't ruin your wrists. The design of a controller, paired with the fact that they are usually used for extended amounts of time makes them inherently unhealthy. There's no controller that won't add to wrists' wear out.
