I dump out the wet tea leaves and give the strainer a rinse right away.

Gaiwan and gongfu style is worth it imo
Really is. Love the Gaiwan.
Switch to matcha. No strainer needed, and there’s nothing to throw in the compost. Problem solved!
Although, I gotta say, I still enjoy a variety of different teas, like white, green and puerh. Definitely still need a gaiwan for that, and a strainer doesn’t hurt either.
This top notch tea reasoning.
yeah it sucks. the dishwasher does a pretty good job on mine though in the silverware tray.
