What makes the joycons better to me is getting a bigger grip and using joycon thumb caps. I have listed the ones I use below, makes using the standard joycons even better. the thumb caps alone make it easier to move the analog stick around and feels nicer on the thumbs.
Mine does fit, but it sure requires you tu push it a bit, I think there are like 3 different versions, ok this one you can see the switch docked
