The same website makes metal buttons, resin buttons with real bugs inside, and more. Overall it's not really anything I'm personally interested, but I love that the deck has enough support, and is tinker friendly enough, that stuff like this is even an option.

Rip the poor bugs. Leave them in their habitat folks.

I was curious if they were using farmed bugs or something else

From the page for the bug Dpads:

Rest assured, no creepy crawlies were harmed in creating these unique dpads โ€“ each bug was respectfully collected after natural passing, discovered in serene settings like windowsills, tangled in spider webs, or peacefully outdoors. These DPADs are not just gaming accessories; they're a tribute to the beauty of nature, combined with the thrill of Halloween! ๐Ÿ•ท๐Ÿ‚

I really wonder how they'd consistently source that, but mostly I just hope I never ever hear about it again.

I mean, custom steam deck resin buttons containing insects is probably niche enough not to have to source many of them.
