The Bokashi bucket thing I was dead wrong about

I spent 6 months thinking bokashi composting was just overpriced garbage since you still have to bury the pre-compost. But my apartment started getting fruit flies (even with a sealed worm bin) and a neighbor in my building let me borrow her bucket for a week. The fermentation smell is actually kinda like pickle juice (not rotting) and my kitchen scraps don't sit around getting moldy anymore. Has anyone else found a way to make bokashi work in a tiny galley kitchen without it looking ugly?

You know you've hit a new low when you start hiding your pickle-scented food garbage behind the dish soap. But hey, at least it's cheaper than therapy.

Fair enough, but I like the vinegar smell more than rotting food. @thomas_roberts gets it.
