Tried a worm bin and then a bokashi bucket in my 500 sq ft place, and only one of them worked | Apartment Composting

I set up a worm bin under my kitchen sink back in January but the fruit flies got so bad my roommate started calling it the swamp. So I switched to a bokashi bucket with the bran stuff from a place on Fulton Street, and honestly it handled everything, even chicken bones and cheese, with zero smell for 6 weeks. The worm bin was a constant fight but the bokashi just sat there quietly doing its thing. Anyone else find that one method is way less work than the other, or did I just do worms wrong?
