Years ago, Stardew Valley fans began to notice something odd while harvesting their crops. When you harvest left-to-right it is quicker than harvesting right-to-left. Slowly, but surely, Stardew Valley fans realized this and gathered in places like Reddit until there was a full blown conspiracy brewing.
Over time, Stardew Valley fans began to test this theory and discovered it wasn't the illusions of some conspiracy tinfoil hat-wearing farmer. Harvesting left-to-right was about two seconds quicker than right-to-left across seven rows of harvesting. Big Farming never confirmed this, until this week.
According to ConcernedApe, this bug has been in the game since release, or at least as far as he knows it has been. To this end, ConcernedApe says the left-facing harvest animation are 100 m/s longer than they should be, vindicating every right-facing harvesting purist out there. As for what was causing this issue, ConcernedApe does not say.

With Update 1.6, this issue will be fixed, but unfortunately, this means console users are going to have to continue to remember to harvest only facing one way. When the update will come to other platforms, remains to be seen, but the expectation is it will be sometime this year.
