There's this type of coating -- I commented on it a while back, will link to my comment in a sec -- that was put on a lot of consumer electronics that over time, breaks down to become sticky.

TPE, thermoplastic elastomers. They (some?) break down over time into really sticky goo.
I haven't seen it in some years -- was a real problem maybe, I dunno, ten years ago? If your thing is only six years old, I dunno if it's that.
But isopropyl alcohol and enough elbow grease will get it off, if it's just a coating on plastic.
I don't see anything when searching for "sticky otterbox", though, so I don't know if that's the factor, even if that's what's going on here. My experience that the source is pretty obvious, since it's a "grippy" rubberized thing that becomes increasingly-sticky over time.
Do beware, however, that you may want to dilute the alcohol to some degree, or simply use a lower concentration form of it. Too strong and it may eat at the underlying plastic just as much as the coating and ruin it.

are you getting a cut from kagi for writing that instead of search? gimme the deets on that deal if so! 😛Nah, I just used to write "googles" and when I switched search engines to Kagi, switched to "kagis".
In this particular case, Kagi runs a Threadiverse -- what they term "Fediverse Forums" -- search lens. AFAIK, haven't checked recently, Google doesn't yet offer that, so that search depended upon a Kagi feature. Kinda the analog to
site:reddit.comwith Google, but spanning the Threadiverse instances.
