I remember reading somewhere that German toilets have a little shelf specifically to inspect your shit for health reasons, so maybe don’t visit Germany

I close the lid. I don’t want to see, hear, or smell that.

Some old ones do. And yes the smell before you flush is as horrible as you’d expect. The combination of diarrhea and one of those toilets made me almost throw up once.

Luckily, you could inspect your vomit in case you forgot what you ate

There’s a lever, usually located on the upper left, that will flush it away

That leaver causes microscopic bits of poop to be sprayed everywhere unless you close the damn lid
LwL@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Not so fun fact: the microscopic bits of poop just spray to different places if you close the lid, but there’s just as many.
Second not so fun fact: mythbusters tested this as well and found that there’s microscopic poop bits everywhere anyway, and they will get on everything.

Fun article, except I think there’s a lot of other factors like the type of seat, hi vs low flow, and which surfaces you’re talking about.
If it mitigates getting shit on the sink counter / toothbrushes, but not the floor, that sounds like a win. And yes, always use proper cleaners… what madman cleans a toilet with just water?

Wow thanks for sharing, I never would’ve thought! Glad my toilet is in a seperate room from the bathroom (and that that’s pretty normal in my country).

Still happens with the lid closed. Unless you lid leaves no gaps

flushing is also an option
taiyang@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
The people commenting that we made me sad, lol.
Also. Lid down when flushing is mandatory flushing imo. Poop aerosol isn’t exactly something I like all over my bathroom.
