Seasoning is a polymer, which is known for its strong resistance. It is unlikely to breakdown just with one dishwasher wash.

The seasoned surface is hydrophobic and highly attractive to oils and fats used for cooking (oleophilic).

The protective layer itself is not very susceptible to soaps, and many users do briefly use detergents and soaps.[28]

Unless you are dish washing it everyday and refuse to dry/reseason it, you will be fine.

However, cast iron is very prone to rust, and the protective layer may have pinholes, so soaking for long periods is contraindicated as the layer may start to flake off.

Meanwhile, I'm like "huh, maybe you should learn how to cook, but you do your stuff, that's your own business".

You... hate cast iron? Of all things people could hate, cast iron is the choice here. Mmaight.

Ceramic rules.

The whole cast iron thing is such a cult. Always makes me laugh when someone tries to preach it to me, how it's great, then there's all this stuff you need to do that you normally wouldn't, oh right you can't do this and you need to do this and yes it's heavy as all hell but that's actually a good thing

lol

I mean, as long as it's your cast iron skillet.

¯\(ツ)/¯ wouldn't kill it. Just scrub any flakes off and re-season. The abuse they can take is almost unreasonable.

It's your expensive quality cookware, if you want to ruin it I can't do anything about it.

Shh, it's okay, the bad man can't hurt you.

In this thread are people trying to use one tool for everything.

You don't use a screwdriver for everything.

Likewise, in the kitchen, you don't use the same utensil for everything.

And I'm sorry, for the people that have one fork, one knife one knife, one pan. No. Unless you live on shit food, you can't cook with just that.

If you actually want tasty food, you'll need some hardware. There's just no way around it.
