1 month ago OK, I think I found my issue. the version of the Blue Pill I have is STM32F103C6T6 which only has 32kb of flash. Unfortunately I should have bought STM32F103C8T6 which comes with 64kb of flash memory.
I am trying to flash a Blue Pill (yes it is genuine) with the FreeJoy_v1_7_1b3.hex firmware file but every time I do I get an 'Error: Operation exceeds memory limits' in the logs of the STM32 Cube Programmer application. See below for full verbose logs.
