Absolutely! Other useful and cheap cleaning things are rubbing alcohol, white vinegar (great for floors), "washing soda", borax, and seconding @JacobCoffinWrites@slrpnk.net about the castille soap, too. I also find sea salt a useful-everywhere ingredient in both household and personal-care cleaning -- it dissolves dirt, scrubs and disinfects. I'm a pretty picky cleaner, but with those things and a good microfiber cloth, no dirt stands a chance.
I got into making all my own cleaning stuff thanks to a sensitivity to chemical fragrances, but it's saved so much money and prevented so much waste compared to buying branded products, I'd never go back. Thanks for the great topic \o/
Love this. I'm a put-linux-on-everything tinkerer who's made countless things work just by stripping off the junky OS that's usually failing due to planned obsolescence -- I still have a macbook from 2011 that stopped running MacOS in about 2017, but has been happily running linux ever since.
I was really angry when I got ahold of a decent chromebook in 2019 and found I couldn't put linux on it, due to deliberate design decisions made to lock the hardware into only using the [expletives] excuse for an OS that is ChromeOS. But it looks like I won the waiting-game, because I put that laptop away rather than throw it out, and last weekend I pulled it out, did some reading and found out that smart folks have now caught up to its little games, and it can run linux now. Exciting! it'll be a great little energy-efficient server-machine once the upgrade is done. Chromebooks age like fine wine :D
