Wool dryer balls was going to be my suggestion also (unless the OP doesn't have a dryer). Everything comes out of the dryer soft and fluffy because of the dryer balls. I haven't used fabric softener in years.

OP, if you line dry, I would switch to a powder detergent (rinses away cleaner than liquid) and use half the recommended amount. I'd also add extra rinses. Your problem.might be too much detergent residue on your clothing.

I've noticed a lot of people don't actually measure liquid detergent, too... just kind of pour some in. I bet that tends to use way more than is called for. We started using the detergent sheets (the ones that just dissolve, however those work) which helps with easy portioning.
