Flushing with the lid up is gross. I do not want to have poo particles flying around and landing on my toothbrush. But maybe that is just me… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Fair enough. But if any poo particles are getting on my toothbrush when the lid is down, more will be getting on when the lid is open. Besides, I also keep the toothbrush in a cabinet so double protection.
That was part of the test, there was essentially no difference. The particles that can become airborne are small Enough they floating around everywhere regardless of how they get out. The real problem is how huge the gap is between the seat and rim. Needs a rubber skirt or something
The only problem with this is that if you get an incomplete flush, you’re leaving a big, beefy lurker for the next person to come along. But it’s an acceptable risk.

sorry to ruin your life but mythbusters tested this and no matter how much protection your toothbrush has there will still be poo particles on it

IIRC they even tried putting it in a separate room without a toilet and it still got poop particles on it.
The obvious solution is to move to a country where toilets aren’t put in the bathroom.
Or just crap in next door’s begonias.

I just take a quick peek once the flushing is done.
Put seat down, flush, wash hands while it’s flushing, then quickly check (and clean if necessary).
And then wash your hands again right?!
Depends. If I only lift the lid no (since I’m not touching anything dirty), if I clean yes.
for the first time…flushing is not that long of a operation.
