Are you me? I've been thinking of trading my Switch for one. Stardew is easily my most played game on it.
It's my main gaming device. I love the thing, and if you take the time to really understand and use the massive amount of control and gyro options it's crazy how good the controls can be for so many different games. Way better than any console, and often nicer than keyboard/mouse. The borderlands games with gyro aiming is the best way to play, hands down. I've also heard high praise on some rts strategy builder games with gyro mouse functions. A genre I didn't think would work well at all without a keyboard and mouse.
We probably put 250 hours in on PC and I think I'm close to 200 on switch. I think my wife just broke 600 on her switch saves so we have some attachments to those farms, but looking into exporting them if we get a deck. Tbh she misses mods at this point after 100% both routes and working on some self imposed restriction farms.
