I hate drift aligning. It's the bane of my existence. I hate all the aligning part hahaha.
No such thing. Learn to align (one way or another, there are at least 3 methods) or go home (you will if you don't).

Nearest is the Celestron Starsense auto-align gadget, but having seen in action its a bit hit-and-miss and someone who knows what they are doing will align quicker.

Then there is the PiFinder (on Cloudynights) - a little box with a camera that plate-solves, and shows which direction to go for your target.
