You might want to say which part of the planet you’re in. Americans just assume everyone has the same medieval plumbing they do, but the vast majority of people don’t
Just the flap and the gasket it seats into, wipe it down with a wet paper towel, see if it still does it
You can also try adjusting the linkage (chain length) sometimes a flap “floats down” slowly because there’s still some water. And that might be causing issues.
Anytime you fuck with a toilet, you want to try the least invasive methods first and work your way up.
Shit can get out of hand quickly and you may end up replacing everything and still experiencing the same issue.
Thanks I’ll give this a try. I’ll see if I can find a replacement part
Every single hardware store has the replacement parts. You can likely replace the entire working insides for about $30.

Definitely try just wiping it off first tho…

Sometimes literally.
If at any part of the process you have shit in your hand, something isn’t working out like it should have
