Don’t understand how the same people that condemn sponges as unsanitary use a brush. Use a launderer cloth that can be regularly sterilized for crying out loud!
You can also get small dish brushes like these:

They’re better at scrubbing stuff, and for the rest, you can use a normal washing cloth.

Pretty sure, I’m not the same people that condemned sponges as unsanitary…
I do think brushes are more sanitary (on average probably even more so than a launderable cloth), but hygiene isn’t my problem with sponges.

gunk absolutely collects, even after thorough washing, at the base of the bristles.

but not wire brushes which are a huge source of serious injuries

You also have these with a soap reservoirs built in, you release soap by pressing a button on top of the handle. They’re amazing!

but the bristles on those are almost always plastic too, even more inert and probably heavier than sponge of equivalent efficiency.

You do have to look for ones made out of wood/bamboo and plant fibers, yeah. Wasn’t too hard for me, but mileage probably varies, depending on where one lives.
