I use Joy dishwashing liquid instead of laundry detergent to do laundry. Seems to work better. Rinses better. What do you think? BTW, if it happens to be "ecologically incorrect", "Frankly, Scarlett, I don't give a damn...." If people didn't breed without thought of consequence, there would be minimal ecological problems -- they are all caused by overpopulation. I am interested only if others have tried it, how it has worked for you if you have tried it. Does it really do as good or better job for you than regular laundry detergent?

I've used Joy occasionally if I ran out of detergent and absolutely needed a small load of laundry done. I can't say I saw either better or worse results (but do we ever really know how much we should be using for any particular size load?). Nothing I've ever washed on an emergency basis has been all that obviously dirty-looking, and it came out clean enough.
As for the "extra thought" about people "breeding without thought of consequence", I'm not sure if you're talking about people having lots of kids or having kids at all; but there's no doubt about it, if people stopped having children the human species would eventually die out, and the world would be left to plants and others creatures.
I think, for the most part, detergents are detergents (at least those made without regard for the Earth). I don't think it matters if they're bottled as dish detergent, clothing detergent, or even cheap shampoo.

I used it for laundry when I've run out of laundry detergent. I also make a great stain remover using 1/3 dish liquid, 1/3 dishwasher powder and 1/3 powdered color safe bleach, mix into a paste and smear on food stains and grass stains works great.

"If people didn't breed without thought of consequences, there would be minimal ecological problems ..." That was great! I just knew to click on this question ... there was more to it than just dishwashing liquid.
You are so right ... "fucking like rabbits" is slowly destroying the planet and ourselves with it. It seems that nobody is thinking about that ... how many people can this planet support? Are we going to continue multiplying until we "eat" everything like termites?
