No doubt that's why spam for medication is so popular: you need
the medication to cope with the rest of the spam.

The correct way would be to define swiss as a language, because
then you can put a suitable redefinition inside the language
specifics, but the following hack will work as well and is a lot
faster to implement (please don't tell anyone I proposed this):
\enableregime[il1]
\let\normalssharp\ssharp
\def\ssharp{\doifmodeelse{swiss}{ss}{\normalssharp}}
\starttext
{\enablemode[swiss] Grüßlis} Grüßlis
\stoptext
Cheers, Taco
