A swiss plug will go into a German or french socket, a German plug will go into a french socket and visa-versa. A two pin German plug will fit in a swiss socket. There are probably more compatibilities with the EU, but these are off the top of my head.

Also, traveling to a different country within the EU isn't the same as going to a different state in the US, so technically, we are better off in the EU plug wise.

Swiss plug with a grounding pin won’t fit into a Type-C or Type-F socket though unless it’s a multi type socket. And Italy has that weird Type-L socket that comes in two sizes. Though they also have Type-F (Schuko). Ireland uses the British standard so not Schuko or Type-C compatible.
