Does anyone use in-sink garbage disposals anymore? (lemmy.world)

When I was growing up, these seemed to be ubiquitous and I never liked them. They seemed overcomplicated for the purpose, and created a gross and smelly area under the sink that needed more cleaning.

I haven't had one in years, as a simple sink mesh does the same job. But I don't really know how other people are. Are under sink garbage disposals still common, and commonly actually used by people here?

I grew up with and around them but they're generally not a thing here in Japan. I'm trying to compost all my organics and such anyway and most things can go into compost.
