> Dryer did not exists and human have been drying clothes in most climates in the last few thousand of years.

Yes, and most of that drying happened outside. Also, moldy rooms and people having to deal with mold were a thing in the past.

I’m sorry but I can’t see a dryer as something else than a luxury.

I used one for the first time when I was 30 something, that might be why.

Yes sometimes stuff don’t dry so well. Then hang them differently. Take advantage of the sun. Idk .

I caved in for the AC: the us climate is different, AC is needed. But for dryer I will stand my snobby European ground :p

It seems to me that you are trying to shift discussion from "should it be allowed to hang cloth outside" and "if I am forced to dry them inside is it good idea to use dryer" into "in a world where I am allowed to hang them inside, is the dryer absolutely necessary".

The answer to your question does not really matter, cause the topic the rest of us discuss is "should drying cloth outside be allowed".
