I'm not a fan of dishwashers. It promotes people piling up shit all over the place, then someone needs to load / unload it. Almost always not the person creating the biggest mess.
It requires pre rinsing the dishes anyways, might as well take the extra 5 seconds of effort per item to just clean it fully there. So it doesn't save you much time anyways often.
The best is just cleaning up after your damn self. Often while you're in the middle of cooking itself etc.
Dishwasher is good for if you have guests and they crash every plate and pot in one day. Or if you have REALLY bad roommates and essentially they are like having guests over every single day.
I’m a big fan of clean as you go. So much of cooking is waiting, why not keep busy. And yeah, why not wash instead of pre rinse… just put some elbow grease into it and it’s done.
