And nothing of value was lost
I remember it being convenient for getting screenshots off it to pc quickly, but I don't know if there's a better method of doing so. I rarely, if ever, use the share function to begin with.
I used the Facebook posting feature back in 2018 before I had an SD card because I was running out of space. I regret it now though because it severely compressed the video & audio and entirely wiped the date/time metadata. Even though I don't recommend it, I feel that Facebook would be a better option than Twitter, because you can private posts.
If you have a hacked Switch you can use mtp-server or ftpd. I like the MTP approach, it works just like DeckyMTP on the Steam Deck.
Classic Nintendo, making simple things like copying screenshots so complicated hacking your switch is a reasonable thing to do....
I do think there should be more easy official wireless options, but it isn't actually difficult to transfer your screenshots & video's over to a PC. All you need to do is put your microSD card in an SD card adapter, and plug it into a PC. Although that worked better back in 2017 when it released; most computers don't have SD card slots anymore.
