I have done so my entire life, water has been cheap here, and I currently don’t pay for water used in my apartment, I have a utility bill, but water is included and I only pay a fixed amount every month for the utilities in my apartment.
I realize it is wasteful when I think about it, but in general I don’t think about it.
Cleaning our drinking water is quite a complicated process. I think it’s pointless to just waste all that energy because you can afford to. And with seasonal droughts becoming more and more common in Europe…

With all due respect, this is such a narrow and selfish way of thinking. Allow me to say, it’s really shitty. What a shame.
But… Why? You just stand there and watch the water run uselessly for 2 straight minutes while you brush your teeth???
Its calming like a mini waterfall. You can sense yourself as an ultra rich for a brief moment. Mental satisfaction is totally worth the price
I would find the sound annoying
No, I brush my teeth.
I don’t understand this consumerism mindset.
I guess that’s why temu is so popular. Consume and waste because you can, not because you need. Just to tell yourself that you’re doing great in life.
Eh, fair I guess, I just don’t see any weird with this, granted I live in Sweden where water is abundant so my frame of reference is different.

Here in Sweden we seldom carry water when out camping in our inland, there is so much clean water comming out of the ground that it is unneeded.
This is changing, but still mostly accurate.
Unfortunately, there’s more to clean water than just the source.
Waste water needs to be cleaned in a complicated multi step process
We were talking about drinking water, not waste treatment. Two very different processes.
Lol cleaning drinking water in countries like Sweden is not complicated or energy intensive.
Ever wondered what happens with the waste water?

It needs to be cleaned too. And the treatment facility doesn’t differentiate between water + excrement and water that was clean. Sewage is sewage.
You know what happens when there is no sewage handling infrastructure.

Could you perhaps make a habit of thinking about it from now on?
I promise you this, if I remember, I will think about it and try to better myself.
I don’t believe in making unrealistic promises
