Switch version degradation

The Nintendo switch's bedrock edition has gotten noticably lower in quality, performance wise. It takes the game much longer to load than other versions, and there is slowdown in the game at points, with the game stuttering often. Another issue (arguably a much worse issue) is the fact that the game is far more apt to crash this time around. Half the time when I try to save and quit my game, the game crashes, and I even try to make sure the game isn't autosaving or anything like that. Occasionally when I just generally load new chunks, the game stutters and eventually crashes, and this is especially detrimental when I'm in a river, in survival mode, and with some of my rarest enchanted tools on me, far away from my house. Getting my stuff back is a matter of closing the software (which takes around a minute just to acknowledge that the game has crashed), boot the game back up, sign in to the online accounts, select my world, wait for the game to load, respawn in, try to remember where I died at, and run there just to find out my items are gone. This happens regardless of video settings, and regardless of whether I'm playing an online game. It's quite frustrating. 

Please get this fixed. I love this game and I hate to see it in this state. I just want to see it fixed and I'm sure there are others who share my sentiments/experiences
