Nah I do it too, or I use the end of my sleeve. I did that before the pandemic though. It was a habit I picked up after working in an office where the warehouse was also our break room, and the location of the bathrooms, which did not hide sound. Not a single person besides me washed their hands in all the time I worked there.

I guess I could post the bathroom door at my work which has the standard metal plate to push it open but the paint on the door just above the plate is worn down to the wood from everyone avoiding touching the intended push spot.
And I agree, the very idea of fully grabbing the whole handle, palm included is mildly gross to me.
