Is it cleaner, or more sterile, to run wet laundered clothing, through a drying machine, - or -  hang them on a line to dry? I was wondering if the hot dryer killed more germs.

Hmm, interesting question. I don’t know of any scientific studies that would answer that. It’s probably cleaner to just wash the clothes in hot water, dry them with a towel, and then hang them up to air-dry - but that’s only a guess.

Oh wow, this is an interesting question!  I’m not a biologist, so I’d recommend googling it, but there might be some people on the internet who would know how to analyze this.
