There are a lot of people, so common, basic knowledge I guess, that say drift is just a natural thing with regards to bandsaws.
People have come up with jigs and specialized pivot point fences (example 1, example 2) and there's a whole thread about it here on Reddit [which might be why this thread is no longer visible on r/woodworking ???].
Anyway, it is (or at least was when I was learning) pretty basic, standard technique or way of teaching how to use a bandsaw for newbies. Different bandsaws (especially older ones I guess) are harder to set up to minimize or eliminate drift. Everything from, like I said previously, special fences and jigs to blade guides, tires for wheels, and even riving pins (bandsaw equivalent of a riving knife on a table saw) have been made and sold to help "deal" with it. It's like a cottage industry or something.
