 I agree. I live in clothes-line country. Not sure if that’s an option for you as well. Bath towels feel like they’re more absorbent after hanging them outside. 

I’ve thought about getting a laundromat grade washer and dryer as well. Some of those seem to last forever.

 I don’t know what your country is, but if you have laundromats, maybe look into where they get their gear. They still make those basic, tough-as-hell models, they just don’t market them to consumers anymore.

 When I was younger I thought seeing clothes hanging on lines was associated with poor people in slums.  But once I got older and didn't care what people thought of me, I took to hanging my clothes out to dry because it is cheaper. The clothes aren't as soft but they last longer.

 Just tell them you’re living green. That’s all the rage, will make you look sophisticated. 

Then on Nostr just tell everyone it was stealing juice from your miners. 

Problem solved.

 A cup of vinegar in your rinse cycle will substitute for fabric softener.
