Europe too. It'd surprise me if it isn't more common than not, globally.

Western Europe, too. It's pretty common in the Netherlands.

Maybe not in North America but in Europe and the middle east it is very common.

I wondered if it's only common in the US

It's common in the United States as well, though far from universal.

It's common in Australia too

I think it's pretty common outside the Anglosphere.

Also in Sweden. I’m surprised by how widespread it is.

It's also not completely uncommon in the US either, see my other comment above.

It fairly common throughout all of canada. Probably in various countries in europe too.

You'd be surprised how common it is in the West too.

It's quite common in the Nordic countries as well.

From what I've seen, it's less common than the US but they do exist.

ssss11 | karma 1593 | avg karma 1.71 · | 2022-01-15 21:07:52

As the other commenter mentioned, perhaps in the US it is fairly common. I’m not in the US and it’s not common here.

mortivore | karma 199 | avg karma 1.47 · | 2020-03-05 13:17:36

It's a common thing in the United States too.

slackfan | karma 760 | avg karma 1.46 · | 2023-09-27 07:57:15

Not just a US thing. Europe is even more prevalent.
