But it does use more electricity. And if you are alone you’re either waiting a week to wash dishes or doing more loads that aren’t full.
IMO in wetter areas where water use isn’t a problem you’re better off saving the energy and letting the water run in the sink. If water use is an issue it may be worth it to do at least a prewash/soak in a filled sink then do a faster running rinse in the second sink, or a filled rinse with a mild anti bacterial agent if you’re cool with that.

How? Washing dishes under the tap uses exactly 0 electricity. How does using a dishwasher use less electricity than that?
I like to hear your explanation for that
