reduce the water pressure. Use the gentle rain mode rather than hurricane mode Sometimes I need the softer water mode, but normally I use to hurricane for the pressure blast effect.

Oh it's an issue regardless I've found Depending on the nature and consistency of your stool for instance, for any pressure level that is going to actually clean that area sufficiently I've found that there will be splatter, even if it's not noticeable. And even if the splatter was only some water, there's still been a need for TP to dry off in my experience.
Better yet don't wipe until the next shower when you can use your hand.
Cats and dogs don't wipe and they are not stinky.
Cat & dog food is designed to produce feces that are not messy. Mary Roach discusses this in one of her books. The diet for astronauts was originally designed by Veterinarians, who did not understand why the astronauts complained about the food. The monkeys did not complain when they were fed Purina Monkey Chow. We humans could produce feces that are not messy if we were content to just eat Purina Human Chow, perhaps with some Soylent Green thrown in once in a while.

There was a lot of talk of bidets during the toilet paper shortage three years ago. After all, it's one thing to save a few dollars on TP. Quite another when you can't get the stuff. If there is another shortage, expect bidets to take off.
