      Edit: I will add that my Switch has been docked since day 1. It is a console (for me). Not a handheld, portable gaming system. So, this was alarming.
      My Switch is the version 2 edition. So, it is pretty old.

Interestingly it did seem like it was charging when I had it in for about an hour, because it was at 19% already, so it could've just been the screen itself
