yeah but it looks like a funny face!
I didn’t know that schuko plugs are the norm for most Europe countries, I thought it was a German thing

Also the french system is compatible with Schuko, so that makes it even more universal.
Yeah I don’t know why we don’t make the switch in France as it wouldn’t be that much of a change
It would be from a financial standpoint. Changing a standard this widely implemented is very costly.
Why change it if they’re compatible anyways? Most devices in the eu are designed to accomodate both, its just a question of the earth pin being different.
I’ve travelled all across europe, coming from a country with the french style outlets. I never had any problems connecting anything except for Switzerland and Italy, because they stuck to their own (inferior) standard thats not compatible with anything else.
