No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions 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.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser 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.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

I use a drying rack, too. I hang clothes neatly because I’ve been too lazy to iron anything ever since I started doing my own laundry. (I don’t usually wear fancy button shirts though)
I don’t use clips for most things, just hang t-shirts and boxer briefs neatly folded in half over the line. So on lazy days, I just pick them up folded like this. This uses much more 2D shelf space in the closet than when folding properly, but it’s faster.
Another option would be using hangers only. Put wet clothes directly onto hangers to dry them. When dry, grab the hangers and put them in the closet. Requires a closet with more hanging bar space and hangers than shelves.
For socks, having the same pair (maybe 2-3 different heights/thicknesses for different seasons) helps so you can just throw them in the same 2-3 boxes all together and usually you just have 1 type of sock per season anyway.
Trousers are less of a problem for me. Not sure how common it is, but where I live it’s common to wear the same pair for a week or so. Well, 1 pair of work trousers and 1 pair of normal trousers/shorts per week. Depending on how much you go outside in your free time, even less washing for the normal pairs…
As another user also noted, reducing the amount of laundry also helps. Maybe look into different fabrics. For example, (merino) wool t-shirts can be worn multiple times before they start to stink. Bamboo viscose or wood fibres like Modal or Tencel (e.g. 70%/30% mixed with cotton) also stinks less. Doesn’t dry as fast as wool, but not relevant to you. Maybe look into hiking/trekking or onebag forums.
