It depends on your particular circumstances.  Whether you use bottles or pods or liquid detergent will affect the overall convenience of this particular task, particularly if you like to use a “capsule or tablet” laundry detergent. If you don’t like using these types of laundry detergent, then you’ll find a traditional “liquid” detergent more convenient and appealing, as it’s the least likely to “leak” or go “bad” relatively quickly.  It’s a personal choice whether you prefer a liquid or a capsule or tablet.  Ultimately much of it depends on your particular circumstances, using a “liquid” detergent does tend to require slightly more packaging waste than a packet or tablet, which in turn can lead to other environmental considerations.

This is actually a complicated topic, and different brands of detergent can work better in different situations.  The main thing to keep in mind when choosing between those options is that liquid detergent creates a lot more suds, and these suds can create more of a mess when you’re washing clothes.  If you do a lot of washing and you tend to make a lot of suds with the detergent, liquid detergent might not always be the best option for you.  However, liquid detergent won’t leave the annoying residue that pods can sometimes leave behind.  So it’s really really important to try various combinations of detergent, and see what works best for you.  It may also be helpful to take frequent breaks while you wash your clothes, so that you reduce the likelihood of creating too many suds and too much of a mess.  Another thing to keep in mind: many people find that hot water is faster and therefore more effective when they’re doing laundry.  You can try different temperatures, and experiment to see which works best for you.
