Is it safe to charge the Switch 1 with through USB?

The #Switch uses a standard USB-C port, but I remember it being finicky, at constant risk of getting damaged, when being charged with the wrong energy source. But would it be safe to plug it to a PC's USB port to charge?

Thanks in advance!

I have always had the impression that charging through something that’s not the official product (or Genki) is ok until that one time it’s not, so the risk is up to you. Personally, I wouldn’t.
