Do you use a dishwasher or wash dishes by hand? (sh.itjust.works)

Is there a real difference in water and electricity consumption? Personally, I don't use a lot of water to wash my dishes (by hand), but maybe I should install a flow meter to make sure.

What is your opinion on the subject? Do you have any evidence or studies available that could confirm your intuition? Or do you have other alternatives in mind?

By hand. I don't have a dishwasher. The place I rent didn't come with one, and I don't have the space for my own (plus no money). I think I've only ever met one person with a dishwasher, although I suppose I wouldn't know if someone has one unless I either go to their house or they bring it up. I don't see the issue with doing dishes by hand, and I pay a flat rate for water so water usage is not a concern to me.

    Same, and even if I wanted to install a dishwasher for my rented place, there's no water supply to connect it to so it would take some very serious work to be done
