    I-is Japan okay… simultaneously being grossed out by toilet paper and it’s a coin-flip whether they use the bidet T_T

    Previously, we conducted a survey of electric bidet use among Japanese community-dwelling residents and found that 55% (2,724/4,952) of the respondents washed the anus either before or after defecation[10]. […]

    In a survey of bidet use in 575 outpatients conducted by Yano et al.[11], 349 (61%) washed the anus at every defecation and 75 (13%) did so occasionally. […]

    In a survey of college students, 34% (47/139) of the female students and 44% (43/98) of their male counterparts reported using the washing function of bidet toilets[12].

    Overall, approximately half of the population washed the anus before or after defecation.

  • I’ll use it more consistently in the coming days to see how it works at different times of the day. Pages are loading slowly here but at least they’re showing up ^^

    3 July, ~18:30 CEST: Pages are loading slowly but everything is usable.

    4 July, 22.49 CEST: 504 Gateway Time-out. The server didn’t respond in time. @ruud@lemmy.world

    6 July, 11:14 CEST: Pages are loading slowly but everything is usable. Making a post is extremely slow, almost feeling like it’ll timeout before succeeding. (But it did succeed)

    6 July, 15:28 CEST: Pages are loading slowly and it is not usable. Thumbnails are refusing to load. The timeline only loads a couple of posts before grinding into a halt. @ruud@lemmy.world

    7 July, 12:07 CEST: Pages are loading slowly but everything is usable. Logging in with 2FA took 45+ seconds.

    8 July, 03:54 CEST: Pages are loading slowly but everything is usable. An error box says logging in failed, immediately after successfully logging in. (It makes no difference, I can keep going)

    8 July, 13:52 CEST: Timelines are loading moderately slowly, but everything is usable and it is the best performance I’ve observed so far since the upgrade.

    12 July, 12:56 CEST: It feels extra slow today. No error messages or timeouts.

    13 July, 10:08 CEST: Pages are loading slowly, but everything is usable. Logging in, loading the main timeline (i.e. the icon with boxes), and making a post all took 20-30 seconds to complete. Loading the profile, directory, calendar etc. was nearly instant. No error messages or timeouts.

    16 July, 12:08 CEST: Logging in took 20-25 seconds, followed by a 10-second freeze. Loading timelines was also slow and was followed by the same freeze. For some reason loading metadata on a link while posting and making the post were both faster. Parts of the global navigation did not work, so I could not visit my own profile page.
