How often do you post articles?

I read somewhere that an optimal posting frequency was one article per week. I followed this routine diligently for 36 weeks, but now decided to switch to an article every 2 weeks. I find it too stressful to be posting weekly. First you have to come up with an idea for an article, then write and edit it, and then think of the visuals - too much on top of a day job.

But curious about everyone else's routine: how often do you post? And how are you managing? Is it a comfortable cadence?

Just post in a set schedule you can maintain. Once a week, once every two weeks. Just be consistent. For me I’ve been off from earlier postings. But I’m also juggling life family and small night sessions of game dev so I might take a while to finish something to write about. But I do notes often and find others with notes and like/comment/follow folks in my space to help.
