Question: how common are round door knobs where you live? I've seen tons of lever handles, but very rarely do I see knob handles

If you happen to find yourself in an older area of Sweden - my frame of reference here is Gamla Stan, (lit. "The Old Town") in Stockholm, then you'll most likely also encounter door knobs on interior doors.
Putting on my UI/UX designer hat, the uptake of handles vs. knobs trends temporally with the uptake of accessibility. 50+ years ago, accessibility was less of a concern, and knobs were what was en vogue, so that's what they went with. In modern times, it's handles. Much better.

This is all kind of fascinating tbh. Like, it's such a small thing I never thought about, but it's super interesting! Thanks for telling me all of this!

Happy to help! I've been doing UI programming for the past 3 years at my job, and have picked up a ton of UX knowledge along the way. Speaking of which, did you know that Sweden has regulations on which direction internal doors must swing? I'm happy to talk about that, too! :)
