I used to but now I do not anymore.

You mean there are people who don’t spend 30 minutes in the shower contemplating their life choices?
I’ve started to just because it’s easy
no. soaping is also scrubbing and having the water run dilutes it to fast. It should sit for a bit until the rinse. and it saves water
I still do, but I used to, too.
I do. But if I am washing only my hair, face or hands, not literally taking a shower, that I turn off while not using it.
Meh, my showers are so short to begin with, I’m already doing my part.
Yes. I don’t take wildly long showers, so the conservation isn’t really worth the convenience of being able to step in/out of warm water at will.
One of the few benefits to a well/septic.
I have to pay zero attention to water conservation. Hell, when it rains a lot I have to let some faucets run. Just pumping water from one side of the house to the other. Otherwise the side with the well can get moisture in the basement

Wells aren’t infinite…
If you’re not using enough it overfills.
But the septic tank has drainage and can distribute the water.
Like. I don’t really get what you’re trying to say

Even in the rare densely populated areas where wells were common, there’s not many left.
Most people in my area just hook up to city services instead of sink more money into their systems for substantial repair. I don’t think there’s many others left at this point, except maybe the 100+ year old houses whose plumbing wouldn’t survive modern pressure.
In rural areas where that’s not an option, your issue doesn’t exist.
Not like if it’s a big deal, but if we’re gonna be pedantic, then we can’t go halfway.

Never! Because I also soap up my hair, and I really don’t like to have the water running at that time.
Mine is easy enough to turn down the water to keep a smaller flow to maintain comfort and water temperature while soaping, so I do that.
I do mostly, I turn it almost all the way off with a valve on the shower head.
The running stream is thinner than a pencil.
If I turn it off all the way, it is cold when I turn it back on.
Uhhhhh, yes?
Yes, but I don’t live in a water stressed area.
If i turn the water off it takes a good 30 seconds to be hot again, so it just stays on.
No… that’s a waste of water.
Yes
