i have been using vinegar for fabric softening (not as a soap) for a decade and i love it. you very occasionally get a tiny whiff of vinegar when unfolding stuff but it's immediately gone.

There's a noticeable difference in softness without any greasiness or lingering odor.

i use a plain white jug of cheap white food vinegar.

how much vinegar do you use for a normal load?

[–] wolfinthewoods@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 days ago

Just finely crush about a half a bag of salt and vinegar chips and then toss 'em in

feels like around a quarter cup? there's a little tray to pour fabric softener and i just glop a bunch in there from the jug.
