I gave away my switch to a coworker because i didn't really like it to buy a steam deck. So i'd say for me yes they where competitors. I use a lenovo legion go now.
I feel like that's more of a preference than a competitor/competition though.
Honestly for me it came down to where i prefer to buy my games. Steam games will follow me for the forseeable future and switch games will not. I gave my coworker my nintendo account too with over $500 of games on it and i was like that's it. That's enough sunk cost that i will lose.
What's the difference?
