Yea that's what you have to do with front loaders.

Coming from Europe I always thought that was common knowledge until I heard all the Americans complain about their stinky "modern washers".

We have been using front loaders for decades, no issues if you know how to use them.

TLDR: Don't use too much detergent, even better don't use softener at all and let the machines air out.

Top loaders are intended to be left open to dry too. I've read it on the instructions on the machine, I think some people just lack the common sense.
