    Anecdotal but Lemmy seems full of germaphobes. It’s whatever but just my observation.

    I’ve lived long enough and dealt with this without getting sick so I also don’t really care personally.

  Now don’t say that, we’re gonna have touchless doors that don’t work for dark skinned folks and too excited to open for white people passing by

  And lazy shits who leave paper towels on the floor by the door.

    There is some blame on the establishment for not providing a garbage by the door to alleviate this issue. However, if it was provided and people are still trashy, I guess it is what it is.

  Your restrooms don’t have automatic doors?

  Anecdotal evidence but, the most common touch-less features in a bath room are the dryer and soap, the two things you only ever touch once and when you are not in a transitional phase.

  The sink I tend to find is usually a handle you have to physically touch, when dirty and when clean, it is such a waste. Bring back the Elementary School foot pedals for sinks (and toilets for flushing).

  I randomly mentioned that if I ever find a used Hospital Surgery Scrub Sink, I will repurpose an area in the house just to use it.

    Quick search shows a lot of residential and commercial options - a legit scrub sink would probably be overkill, albeit novel. Just bleach the hell out of it if you go the scrub route - those things nasty.

  The most disgusting thing in that situation is your belt buckle. It could be the fly on your pants, but I assume those get washed every once in awhile.

  Ever since Covid, I have opened doors with handles like that using my pinky finger because I don’t use that for anything important, especially not touching my face and it helps minimize the spread of germs

  This (and a lot of other reasons) is why I carry a handkerchief.

  The best is no door at all - like at airports where there’s just a barrier wall you have to walk around. I was about to say it’s not something you can do in every setting, but that’s only because we aren’t willing to dedicate the space to it.

  Fun fact! As long as the soap inside the dispenser works as it should it literally doesnt matter if it is touch or how covered in germs it is.

  Why do they call them “handles” when you are supposed to open them with your foot?
