That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

OK, so, I actually did this a few months ago!
But, in my opinion, it is not a 100% replacement for toilet paper. First, everything gets wet after using-and if you're hairy like me you really do want to dry it, and I use TP to do that. Also, I've noticed that it doesn't always get everything-and using some TP to dry off is also a good way to make sure everything is clean.
And it also has a good bit of spray that will land on the seat and the bidet itself. You need to clean that off, I tend to do it with toilet paper when I stand up.
You won't stop using TP, but you'll certainly use less of it, I think I use about half as much now as before.
You should be able to get everything with technique, adjusting it, or simply running it longer. I had the same issue initially but it's since been resolved. I fold a few squares of TP to clean up any water on back of seat and pat myself dry but that could easily be replaced with towels. I use way less TP too.
To be clear I'm definitely using less TP, but my point is that I still have to use it- and a lot of times when posts about bidets come up, they're talked about as a 100% replacement to TP, which they aren't.
Usually if it hasn't gotten everything I just run it longer and with a bit stronger flow.
