Buddy...

  1. Turn your shirt inside out before putting it in the machine.
  2. Set the machine to cold water, delicate/gentle cycle.
  3. The picture you posted is of a dry, hot desert, right? What do you think a machine called a dryer that uses heat will do? Hang them to dry on a cheap rack from Amazon or your shower curtain rod instead.

I have shirts that still look practically new after dozens and dozens of washes.

How do you insert an image like this in comments? I can only get the link to the image to show up. Thanks.

![](link-to-your-image)

When you post it the image should show up, even if it just looks like a link when typing the comment

In markdown, there is the notation []() for links. Reddit allowed it too for examples, and generally a lot of programs and platforms that have mild text formatting use markdown.
[some text](https://example.org/some-link) will turn into some text

Lemmy has basically extended this with ![]() which shows the content of the link
![some text](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/70/Example.png) will turn into some text

Where did that "some text" go? It's basically the placeholder for when the image is loading or failed to load, the correct term is the alt-text.

The image @[email protected] was asking about uses the text
![](https://ttrpg.network/pictrs/image/396cb01b-6b2b-4351-9cd5-0742c2914719.png)
It has no alt text. Any frontent that has an image upload button or similar will upload the image somewhere, take the link, and put it into your post like this.

I hope your frontend renders code-blocks and escapes with backslash (\) correctly, else this may look weird to you.

Do you really think his mom is going to go through all that?

  1. OP can turn them inside out themselves when they take the shirts off and put them in the dirt clothes hamper.
  2. You don't change the settings for every individual article of clothing. You turn the knob or press the button once. This is not hard.
  3. Hanging stuff up is easier and faster than folding it. The actual drying part is slow though.
