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've been charging my day one Switch with my phone's charger and there's been no issues.

The issues with bricking Switch seems to occur when using certain 3rd party docks. Charging Switch itself should be fine in most cases.
