Maytag screen mesh only needs emptying once in a while - this is after two loads. Most of the lint heads out the vent to freedom on the prairie winds:

One for the BD Whirlpool fans. Not too copious, a well laundered load of jeans.

that looks like dangerously deep lint, how do you remove it?
Nice wringer lint there rpms, well caught by the "nylon method"!!
kb0nes, your lint "striations" look difficult to remove, do you need running water?
LAUNDRESS!! where's the LINT DAMMIT!!

I had wadss of lint from the dryer, but threw it out, thinking you only wanted to see lint from the washer. our Maytag dryer LDE 482 does a nice job of extracting lint. Shot is LA482 load used and resulting tendrils of fibers.

Yesterday, I had a lint wad similar to Phil's after washing the Velux blanket from our bed, and an afghan I bought at an estate sale. I washed them in my 1971 Maytag A806s, and dried them in my 1971 DE606, and the lint filter disc was lightly covered also. There was quite a bit of hair in the lint from the washer. They came out of the DE606 so nice & soft, and only faintly smelling of the Suavitel Morning Sun softener I used.

Ewwwww! Gross!
Most of what WOULD be lint balls actually gets stuck in my drain! If only I could have shared a shot of my laundry tub over-flowing before I periodically unstuck the lint after some of my wash loads... (See following pictures)

Here is some of the lint from the drain taken out w/ a handy drain-unclogging tool:

Just as I thought I was finished, I used my scissors I free the lint with & had more that I managed to get out, here to show you:
