I never heard if putting butter on a sandwich before I met my wife. Always mayo. But then, I consider myself the king of condiments and use an assortment of spreads on my sandwiches.
I think it depends on the sandwich, too. I like horseradish on beef or pastrami or even mustard. I've been known to dip grilled cheese in thousand island or blue cheese salad dressing.
But then I'm the guy that puts salsa on fried eggs... so there is that

Neither. Lettuce and tomato on many sandwiches or just lettuce. If it is a sub- some call them heroes and other names but oil and vinegar on it then. But skip the butter and mayo on the bread and also mustard.
Malt vinegar at the chippy. HP sauce and horseradish on venison, beef or other red meats. Piccalilli (chow chow) on pork or poultry sarnies.
In my stateside life now I will indulge mayonnaise on a bacon butty with lettuce and tomato. In my youth, bacon butties were spread with butter.

I had an Italian coworker who educated me on the benefits of Giardiniera on sandwiches, both hot or cold. Basically the Italian version of what us Americans call chow chow.

Both. Unless it's a sweet sandwich like peanut butter and honey or raisins.

2Tim. 3:16,17 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
Never used butter until we started Bible translation work. How does THAT relate?!? Well, mayo is a spoilage danger. So all sandwiches that were being taken to the villages were made with butter.
Other condiments?
Straight horseradish.
That green stuff (my memory fails me.) Oh, it's wasabi.
Both of these will clear you sinuses, and will give you the jaw-clinches if you use too much, or aren't used to it. I can still over do it, but I go pretty extreme on spices.
(My first encounter with straight horseradish was when I was in elementary school level Sunday School, and the teacher did a special lesson on the Pass-Over. She brought in some lamb, and used horseradish as the "bitter herbs". She warned us all to only take just a very tiny bit. I loved it, and kept taking more and more of it, till she stopped me, I think. I've been hooked ever since.)
